Subject: [PATCH 4/5] netfilter: xt_nfacct: Fix alignment mismatch in xt_nfacct_match_info
Date: Mon, 19 Aug 2019 20:49:10 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190819184911.15263-5-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190819184911.15263-1-pablo@netfilter.org>
From: Juliana Rodrigueiro <juliana.rodrigueiro@intra2net.com>
When running a 64-bit kernel with a 32-bit iptables binary, the size of
the xt_nfacct_match_info struct diverges.
kernel: sizeof(struct xt_nfacct_match_info) : 40
iptables: sizeof(struct xt_nfacct_match_info)) : 36
Trying to append nfacct related rules results in an unhelpful message.
Although it is suggested to look for more information in dmesg, nothing
can be found there.
# iptables -A <chain> -m nfacct --nfacct-name <acct-object>
iptables: Invalid argument. Run `dmesg' for more information.
This patch fixes the memory misalignment by enforcing 8-byte alignment
within the struct's first revision. This solution is often used in many
other uapi netfilter headers.
