From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Christoph Schulz Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2014 20:10:29 +0000 Subject: [PATCH RESEND net 1/1] net: ppp: fix creating PPP pass and active filters Message-Id: <53C6DC35.3030400@kristov.de> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: netdev@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-ppp@vger.kernel.org, paulus@samba.org, isdn@linux-pingi.de From: Christoph Schulz Commit 568f194e8bd16c353ad50f9ab95d98b20578a39d ("net: ppp: use sk_unattached_filter api") inadvertently changed the logic when setting PPP pass and active filters. This applies to both the generic PPP subsystem implemented by drivers/net/ppp/ppp_generic.c and the ISDN PPP subsystem implemented by drivers/isdn/i4l/isdn_ppp.c. The original code in ppp_ioctl() (or isdn_ppp_ioctl(), resp.) handling PPPIOCSPASS and PPPIOCSACTIVE allowed to remove a pass/active filter previously set by using a filter of length zero. However, with the new code this is not possible anymore as this case is not explicitly checked for, which leads to passing NULL as a filter to sk_unattached_filter_create(). This results in returning EINVAL to the caller. Additionally, the variables ppp->pass_filter and ppp->active_filter (or is->pass_filter and is->active_filter, resp.) are not reset to NULL, although the filters they point to may have been destroyed by sk_unattached_filter_destroy(), so in this EINVAL case dangling pointers are left behind (provided the pointers were previously non-NULL). This patch corrects both problems by checking whether the filter passed is empty or non-empty, and prevents sk_unattached_filter_create() from being called in the first case. Moreover, the pointers are always reset to NULL as soon as sk_unattached_filter_destroy() returns.
