[PATCH 2/2] netfilter: fix wrong arithmetics regarding NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_MAX

[PATCH 2/2] netfilter: fix wrong arithmetics regarding NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_MAX

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_MAX should be __NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_MAX - 1.

nft_reject_icmp_code() and nft_reject_icmpv6_code() are called from the
packet path, so BUG_ON in case we try to access an unknown abstracted
ICMP code. This should not happen since we already validate this from
the nft_reject_{inet,bridge}_init.

[PATCH 0/2] Netfilter fixes for net-next

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

Hi David,

This batch contains two fixes for what you have in your net-next,
they are:

1) Remove nf_send_reset6() from header file. This function now resides
   in the nf_reject_ipv6 module. Reported by Eric Dumazet.

2) Fix wrong NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_MAX definition and adjust code to fix
   errors reported by Dan Carpenter's static analysis tools.

You can pull these changes from:

  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pablo/nf-next.git

Thanks!

Hi All,

This morning I was testing a kernel build from Linus' tree as of Linux
v3.17-7639-g90eac7eee2f4.  When I rebooted my test machines, I
couldn't ssh back into any of them.  I poked around a bit and noticed
that it seems the iptables rules weren't getting loaded properly.
Traffic out worked fine, and I could ping the machine, but other
incoming traffic was blocked.  Then I saw that the ip6t_REJECT and
ip6t_rpfilter modules were not being loaded on the bad kernel.
Looking in dmesg I see:

[   14.619028] nf_reject_ipv6: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel.
[   14.619125] nf_reject_ipv6: Unknown symbol ip6_local_out (err 0)

So I did a git bisect and it pointed to this patch:

[jwboyer@obiwan linux]$ git bisect bad

I've attached the bisect log.

Perhaps one too many header files were trimmed in this case?
