Subject: [PATCH net] ipv4: don't set IPv6 only flags to IPv4 addresses
Date: Mon,  1 Jul 2019 18:08:05 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190701160805.32404-1-mcroce@redhat.com> (raw)

Avoid the situation where an IPV6 only flag is applied to an IPv4 address:

    # ip addr add 192.0.2.1/24 dev dummy0 nodad home mngtmpaddr noprefixroute
    # ip -4 addr show dev dummy0
    2: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
        inet 192.0.2.1/24 scope global noprefixroute dummy0
           valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

Or worse, by sending a malicious netlink command:

    # ip -4 addr show dev dummy0
    2: dummy0: <BROADCAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
        inet 192.0.2.1/24 scope global nodad optimistic dadfailed home tentative mngtmpaddr noprefixroute stable-privacy dummy0
           valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
