Subject: [PATCH net] netlink: fix wrong subscription bitmask to group mapping in
Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2015 10:51:53 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1422525113-5698-1-git-send-email-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
The subscription bitmask passed via struct sockaddr_nl is converted to
the group number when calling the netlink_bind() and netlink_unbind()
callbacks.
The conversion is however incorrect since bitmask (1 << 0) needs to be
mapped to group number 1. Note that you cannot specify the group number 0
(usually known as _NONE) from setsockopt() using NETLINK_ADD_MEMBERSHIP
since this is rejected through -EINVAL.
This problem became noticeable since 97840cb ("netfilter: nfnetlink:
fix insufficient validation in nfnetlink_bind") when binding to bitmask
(1 << 0) in ctnetlink.
