[PATCH 00/13] Netfilter fixes for net

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

Hi David,

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for net:

1) Postpone chain policy update to drop after transaction is complete,
   from Florian Westphal.

2) Add entry to flowtable after confirmation to fix UDP flows with
   packets going in one single direction.

3) Reference count leak in dst object, from Taehee Yoo.

4) Check for TTL field in flowtable datapath, from Taehee Yoo.

5) Fix h323 conntrack helper due to incorrect boundary check,
   from Jakub Jankowski.

6) Fix incorrect rcu dereference when fetching basechain stats,
   from Florian Westphal.

7) Missing error check when adding new entries to flowtable,
   from Taehee Yoo.

8) Use version field in nfnetlink message to honor the nfgen_family
   field, from Kristian Evensen.

9) Remove incorrect configuration check for CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_IPV6,
   from Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan.

10) Prevent dying entries from being added to the flowtable,
    from Taehee Yoo.

11) Don't hit WARN_ON() with malformed blob in ebtables with
    trailing data after last rule, reported by syzbot, patch
    from Florian Westphal.

12) Remove NFT_CT_TIMEOUT enumeration, never used in the kernel
    code.

13) Fix incorrect definition for NFT_LOGLEVEL_MAX, from Florian
    Westphal.

This batch comes with a conflict that can be fixed with this patch:

[PATCH 01/13] netfilter: nf_tables: delay chain policy update until transaction is complete

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

From: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>

When we process a long ruleset of the form

chain input {
   type filter hook input priority filter; policy drop;
   ...
}

Then the base chain gets registered early on, we then continue to
process/validate the next messages coming in the same transaction.

Problem is that if the base chain policy is 'drop', it will take effect
immediately, which causes all traffic to get blocked until the
transaction completes or is aborted.

Fix this by deferring the policy until the transaction has been
processed and all of the rules have been flagged as active.

[PATCH 02/13] netfilter: nft_flow_offload: add entry to flowtable after confirmation

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

This is fixing flow offload for UDP traffic where packets only follow
one single direction.

The flow_offload_fixup_tcp() mechanism works fine in case that the
offloaded entry remains in SYN_RECV state, given sequence tracking is
reset and that conntrack handles syn+ack packets as a retransmission, ie.

	sES + synack => sIG

for reply traffic.

[PATCH 03/13] netfilter: nf_flow_table: fix netdev refcnt leak

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

From: Taehee Yoo <ap420073@gmail.com>

flow_offload_alloc() calls nf_route() to get a dst_entry. Internally,
nf_route() calls ip_route_output_key() that allocates a dst_entry and
holds it. So, a dst_entry should be released by dst_release() if
nf_route() is successful.

Otherwise, netns exit routine cannot be finished and the following
message is printed:

[PATCH 05/13] netfilter: nf_conntrack_h323: restore boundary check correctness

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

From: Jakub Jankowski <shasta@toxcorp.com>

Since commit bc7d811ace4a ("netfilter: nf_ct_h323: Convert
CHECK_BOUND macro to function"), NAT traversal for H.323
doesn't work, failing to parse H323-UserInformation.
nf_h323_error_boundary() compares contents of the bitstring,
not the addresses, preventing valid H.323 packets from being
conntrack'd.

This looks like an oversight from when CHECK_BOUND macro was
converted to a function.

To fix it, stop dereferencing bs->cur and bs->end.

[PATCH 06/13] netfilter: nf_tables: fix base chain stat rcu_dereference usage

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

From: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>

Following splat gets triggered when nfnetlink monitor is running while
xtables-nft selftests are running:

net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c:1272 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!
other info that might help us debug this:

1 lock held by xtables-nft-mul/27006:
 #0: 00000000e0f85be9 (&net->nft.commit_mutex){+.+.}, at: nf_tables_valid_genid+0x1a/0x50
Call Trace:
 nf_tables_fill_chain_info.isra.45+0x6cc/0x6e0
 nf_tables_chain_notify+0xf8/0x1a0
 nf_tables_commit+0x165c/0x1740

nf_tables_fill_chain_info() can be called both from dumps (rcu read locked)
or from the transaction path if a userspace process subscribed to nftables
notifications.

In the 'table dump' case, rcu_access_pointer() cannot be used: We do not
hold transaction mutex so the pointer can be NULLed right after the check.
Just unconditionally fetch the value, then have the helper return
immediately if its NULL.

In the notification case we don't hold the rcu read lock, but updates are
prevented due to transaction mutex. Use rcu_dereference_check() to make lockdep
aware of this.

[PATCH 08/13] netfilter: ctnetlink: Resolve conntrack L3-protocol flush regression

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

From: Kristian Evensen <kristian.evensen@gmail.com>

Commit 59c08c69c278 ("netfilter: ctnetlink: Support L3 protocol-filter
on flush") introduced a user-space regression when flushing connection
track entries. Before this commit, the nfgen_family field was not used
by the kernel and all entries were removed. Since this commit,
nfgen_family is used to filter out entries that should not be removed.
One example a broken tool is conntrack. conntrack always sets
nfgen_family to AF_INET, so after 59c08c69c278 only IPv4 entries were
removed with the -F parameter.

Pablo Neira Ayuso suggested using nfgenmsg->version to resolve the
regression, and this commit implements his suggestion. nfgenmsg->version
is so far set to zero, so it is well-suited to be used as a flag for
selecting old or new flush behavior. If version is 0, nfgen_family is
ignored and all entries are used. If user-space sets the version to one
(or any other value than 0), then the new behavior is used. As version
only can have two valid values, I chose not to add a new
NFNETLINK_VERSION-constant.

Re: [PATCH 08/13] netfilter: ctnetlink: Resolve conntrack L3-protocol flush regression

[Felix Kaechele]

Hi there,

this patch is giving me some trouble as it breaks deletion of conntrack 
entries in software that doesn't set the version flag to anything else 
but 0.

I'm not entirely sure what is going on here but a piece of software I am 
using is now unable to delete conntrack entries and is therefor not 
functioning.
Specifically this piece of code seems to fail:
https://github.com/wlanslovenija/tunneldigger/blob/master/broker/src/tunneldigger_broker/conntrack.py#L112

That software relies heavily on libnetfilter_conntrack, which itself, 
with this patch, seems to be broken as well:

   [felix@x1 utils]$ sudo ./conntrack_create

   TEST: create conntrack (OK)

   [felix@x1 utils]$ sudo ./conntrack_delete

   TEST: delete conntrack (-1)(No such file or directory)


If in libnetfilter_conntrack I edit utils/conntrack_delete.c and change 
the line

   nfct_set_attr_u8(ct, ATTR_L3PROTO, AF_INET);


to read

   nfct_set_attr_u8(ct, ATTR_L3PROTO, AF_UNSPEC);


it starts working again.

As I said, I haven't entirely figured out why this patch breaks 
previously working software and what I need to do on my end to unbreak 
my software that is using libnetfilter_conntrack. I haven't found a way 
to make libnetfilter_conntrack set any other version than NFNETLINK_V0 
for the messages it sends, which I presume would fix my problem.

Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
   Felix

Hi there,

unfortunately the patch didn't work for me.

I did some deeper digging and it seems that nf_conntrack_find_get within 
ctnetlink_del_conntrack will not find the entry if the address family 
for the delete query is AF_UNSPEC (due to nfmsg->version being 0) but 
the conntrack entry was initially created with AF_INET as the address 
family. I believe the tuples will have different hashes in this case and 
my guess is that this is not accounted for in the code, i.e. that 
AF_UNSPEC should match both AF_INET and AF_INET6. At the moment it seems 
to match none instead.

I could be wrong though, I'm not that familiar with the netfilter code.

   Felix

As you describe, conntrack is a hashtable and the layer 3 protocol is
part of the hash:

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c#L188

so AF_UNSPEC cannot work.

There is no support for layer 3 wildcard deletion.

So in this case I'd like to propose two options:

1. the patch should be reverted and userspace fixed to properly request 
flushing of both AF_INET and AF_INET6 entries in the table when doing a 
full flush

2. both this patch as well as the initial patch "netfilter: ctnetlink: 
Support L3 protocol-filter on flush" should be reverted and a new 
approach should be made to implement that feature.

As it stands right now current kernel versions that are being released 
break userspace, which is unfortunate, because it forces me to run 
older, vulnerable kernels.

Hi,

I am sorry for the trouble that my change has caused. I do not know
what the correct action would be, but I am just trying to figure out
what is going on. In your first email, you wrote:

> entries in software that doesn't set the version flag to anything else
> but 0.

I might be a bit slow, but I have some trouble understanding this
sentence. Is what you are saying that software that sets version to
anything but 0 breaks? According to the discussion triggered by the
patch adding the feature that we fix here (see the thread [PATCH
07/31] netfilter: ctnetlink: Support L3 protocol-filter on flush),
using the version field is the correct solution. Pablo wrote:

> The version field was meant to deal with this case.

> It has been not unused so far because we had no good reason.

So I guess Nicholas worry was correct, that there are applications
that leave version uninitialized and they trigger the regression. I
will let others decide if not setting version counts as a regression
or incorrect API usage. If an uninitialized version counts as a
regression, I am fine with reverting and will try to come up with
another approach. However, I guess we now might have users that depend
on the new behavior of flush as well.

BR,
Kristian

Yeah, definitely not my best work of prose ;-)
What I was trying to say is: Any software that remains with the version 
set to 0 will not work. By association, since libnetfilter_conntrack 
explicitly sets the version to 0, anything that uses 
libnetfilter_conntrack will be unable to delete a specific entry in the 
conntrack table.

I believe that's not the issue here.

So here's what my understanding is of what is happening:

Let's go back to that line of code:

u_int8_t u3 = nfmsg->version ? nfmsg->nfgen_family : AF_UNSPEC;

Just to make sure I understand this correctly: If the version is set to 
0 the address family (l3proto) will be set to AF_UNSPEC regardless of 
what the actual l3proto was set to by the user of the API.
It is only set to the value chosen by the if the version is set to a 
non-null value.
We assume that all clients that require the old behaviour set their 
version to 0, since that's the only valid value to set it to at this 
point anyway.

The problem that arises from this:
When creating a conntrack entry with libnetfilter_conntrack it will 
happly accept the address family you supply. Let's assume we create an 
entry where AF_INET is supplied.
The entry will be created with AF_INET as it's l3proto. Hence, the tuple 
and its hash are only going to be matched upon search if the l3proto 
matches as well.

Now, when you try to delete an entry using libnetfilter_conntrack it 
will explicitly set it's version to 0 in the process of creating the 
message to the API, as it usually does.
Therefor the kernel, under the new behaviour, will disregard the l3proto 
and set AF_UNSPEC instead. By doing this we have created a new tuple 
with a hash that is different from the hash of the tuple that was used 
when creating the conntrack entry, since it was initially created with 
AF_INET, not AF_UNSPEC.
Therefor the search will turn up with no results as the tuples we 
actually want to match are now different, after AF_INET was yanked and 
AF_UNSPEC was put in.
Because the search doesn't find the entry we're trying to delete it will 
return ENOENT and our entry will not be deleted.

I hope my description is somewhat comprehensible. I'm basically thinking 
out loud here.

I have to admit that I also don't know how to approach this in a way 
that will not break userspace but also satisfy the requirements of users 
that would like L3 proto filtering.
I believe the changes required to make it work would also need to 
permeate into how searches are performed. Specifically it would need to 
include tuples with all possible l3protos when AF_UNSPEC is given, so we 
actually gather all entries regardless of l3proto. I believe that this 
is the intended behaviour, right?

Regards,
   Felix

Thanks, now I follow. I now see that you are talking about the
deleting and not flushing. Unless anyone beats me to it, I will try to
take a closer look at the problem later today. Pablos patch implements
the first thing that I wanted to try (only read and use version/family
when flushing), and I see that Nicolas has made some suggestions. If
you could first try Pablo's patch with Nicolas' changes, that would be
great as the change should revert behavior of delete back to how it
was before my change.

BR,
Kristian

Yes, these changes fix the issue for me.

I have attached the patch I used, which is probably the change that

That's the right fix indeed, would you mind to submit it including a
patch description and Signed-off-by: tag?

This should apply via git-am.

Yes, your understanding is correct and I think I now see what has gone
wrong. The change in the patch we are discussing here should only be
applied to the flush-path. What happened was that when fixing up the
support for flushing,  we (well, I) forgot about delete. Until my
original patch got merged, u3 was never used when flushing. However,
the value was used when deleting. By changing the value assigned to
u3, we unfortunately broke delete. By moving the "u3 = nfmsg->version
...." line to the else-clause (like Pablo did in his patch) and
passing nfmsg->nfgen_family (like Nicolas suggests) to the
parse_tuple-calls, the old behavior for delete should be restored and
filter still support flushing by L3-protocol.

BR,
Kristian

What kind of application is leaving this uninitialized?

The software you're pointing to is using libnetfilter_conntrack.

Your usecase has never ever worked. You cannot delete entries via
AF_UNSPEC, you're just mixing things up.

Right, will send v2. Thanks Nicolas.

[PATCH 09/13] netfilter: nf_conntrack_h323: Remove deprecated config check

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

From: Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan <subashab@codeaurora.org>

CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_IPV6 has been deprecated so replace it with a check
for IPV6 instead.

Use nf_ip6_route6() instead of v6ops->route() and keep the IS_MODULE()
in nf_ipv6_ops as mentioned by Florian so that direct calls are used
when IPV6 is builtin and indirect calls are used only when IPV6 is a
module.

[PATCH 10/13] netfilter: nf_flow_table: do not flow offload deleted conntrack entries

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

From: Taehee Yoo <ap420073@gmail.com>

Conntrack entries can be deleted by the masquerade module. In that case,
flow offload should be deleted too, but GC and data-path of flow offload
do not check for conntrack status bits, hence flow offload entries will
be removed only by the timeout.

Update garbage collector and data-path to check for ct->status. If
IPS_DYING_BIT is set, garbage collector removes flow offload entries and
data-path routine ignores them.

[PATCH 11/13] netfilter: ebtables: CONFIG_COMPAT: reject trailing data after last rule

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

From: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>

If userspace provides a rule blob with trailing data after last target,
we trigger a splat, then convert ruleset to 64bit format (with trailing
data), then pass that to do_replace_finish() which then returns -EINVAL.

Erroring out right away avoids the splat plus unneeded translation and
error unwind.
