Subject: [added to the 4.1 stable tree] nf_conntrack: avoid kernel pointer value leak in slab name
Date: Thu, 19 May 2016 00:20:06 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1463631606-32540-67-git-send-email-sasha.levin@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1463631606-32540-1-git-send-email-sasha.levin@oracle.com>
From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
This patch has been added to the 4.1 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.
===============
[ Upstream commit 31b0b385f69d8d5491a4bca288e25e63f1d945d0 ]
The slab name ends up being visible in the directory structure under
/sys, and even if you don't have access rights to the file you can see
the filenames.
Just use a 64-bit counter instead of the pointer to the 'net' structure
to generate a unique name.
This code will go away in 4.7 when the conntrack code moves to a single
kmemcache, but this is the backportable simple solution to avoiding
leaking kernel pointers to user space.
Fixes: 5b3501faa874 ("netfilter: nf_conntrack: per netns nf_conntrack_cachep")
