Subject: [PATCH nf 2/2] ipvs: skip cport 0 connections in ip_vs_conn_out_get()
Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2026 10:11:15 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260925141115.16126-3-axel.mierczuk@1password.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260925141115.16126-1-axel.mierczuk@1password.com>

ip_vs_conn_out_get() does not filter templates. A template with
cport 0 and DR or TUN forwarding bits is matched by a packet sent
to client port 0 that traverses the out hook, and handle_response()
then runs ip_vs_set_state() and the timeout update on a connection
that must never see packets. A backup server receives such
templates over the unauthenticated sync protocol. Connections that
still wait for their cport with IP_VS_CONN_F_NO_CPORT can be
matched the same way.

Require a nonzero cp->cport for a match. Templates keep cport 0
throughout their lifetime. FTP data connections learn their client
port from incoming traffic before replies are processed.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
