Subject: [PATCH 1/3] netfilter: ctnetlink: don't permit ct creation with random tuple
Date: Wed, 13 Feb 2013 21:38:31 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1360787913-10335-2-git-send-email-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1360787913-10335-1-git-send-email-pablo@netfilter.org>

From: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>

Userspace can cause kernel panic by not specifying orig/reply
tuple: kernel will create a tuple with random stack values.

Problem is that tuple.dst.dir will be random, too, which
causes nf_ct_tuplehash_to_ctrack() to return garbage.
