Remove DECnet support from kernel

2022-08-22T13:26:30Z

DECnet is an obsolete network protocol that receives more attention from kernel janitors than users. It belongs in computer protocol history museum not in Linux kernel. It has been "Orphaned" in kernel since 2010. The iproute2 support for DECnet was dropped in 5.0 release. The documentation link on Sourceforge says it is abandoned there as well. Leave the UAPI alone to keep userspace programs compiling. This means that there is still an empty neighbour table for AF_DECNET. The table of /proc/sys/net entries was updated to match current directories and reformatted to be alphabetical.

netfilter: Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones

2020-07-29T18:09:18Z

Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: If not .svg: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

Based on 1 normalized pattern(s): this code may be copied under the gpl v 2 or at your option any later version extracted by the scancode license scanner the SPDX license identifier GPL-2.0-or-later has been chosen to replace the boilerplate/reference in 1 file(s).

decnet: dn_rtmsg: Improve input length sanitization in dnrmg_receive_user_skb

2017-06-08T14:51:22Z

Verify that the length of the socket buffer is sufficient to cover the nlmsghdr structure before accessing the nlh->nlmsg_len field for further input sanitization. If the client only supplies 1-3 bytes of data in sk_buff, then nlh->nlmsg_len remains partially uninitialized and contains leftover memory from the corresponding kernel allocation. Operating on such data may result in indeterminate evaluation of the nlmsg_len < sizeof(*nlh) expression. The bug was discovered by a runtime instrumentation designed to detect use of uninitialized memory in the kernel. The patch prevents this and other similar tools (e.g. KMSAN) from flagging this behavior in the future. Signed-off-by: Mateusz Jurczyk Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree. A large bunch of code cleanups, simplify the conntrack extension codebase, get rid of the fake conntrack object, speed up netns by selective synchronize_net() calls. More specifically, they are: 1) Check for ct->status bit instead of using nfct_nat() from IPVS and Netfilter codebase, patch from Florian Westphal. 2) Use kcalloc() wherever possible in the IPVS code, from Varsha Rao. 3) Simplify FTP IPVS helper module registration path, from Arushi Singhal. 4) Introduce nft_is_base_chain() helper function. 5) Enforce expectation limit from userspace conntrack helper, from Gao Feng. 6) Add nf_ct_remove_expect() helper function, from Gao Feng. 7) NAT mangle helper function return boolean, from Gao Feng. 8) ctnetlink_alloc_expect() should only work for conntrack with helpers, from Gao Feng. 9) Add nfnl_msg_type() helper function to nfnetlink to build the netlink message type. 10) Get rid of unnecessary cast on void, from simran singhal. 11) Use seq_puts()/seq_putc() instead of seq_printf() where possible, also from simran singhal. 12) Use list_prev_entry() from nf_tables, from simran signhal. 13) Remove unnecessary & on pointer function in the Netfilter and IPVS code. 14) Remove obsolete comment on set of rules per CPU in ip6_tables, no longer true. From Arushi Singhal. 15) Remove duplicated nf_conntrack_l4proto_udplite4, from Gao Feng. 16) Remove unnecessary nested rcu_read_lock() in __nf_nat_decode_session(). Code running from hooks are already guaranteed to run under RCU read side. 17) Remove deadcode in nf_tables_getobj(), from Aaron Conole. 18) Remove double assignment in nf_ct_l4proto_pernet_unregister_one(), also from Aaron. 19) Get rid of unsed __ip_set_get_netlink(), from Aaron Conole. 20) Don't propagate NF_DROP error to userspace via ctnetlink in __nf_nat_alloc_null_binding() function, from Gao Feng. 21) Revisit nf_ct_deliver_cached_events() to remove unnecessary checks, from Gao Feng. 22) Kill the fake untracked conntrack objects, use ctinfo instead to annotate a conntrack object is untracked, from Florian Westphal. 23) Remove nf_ct_is_untracked(), now obsolete since we have no conntrack template anymore, from Florian. 24) Add event mask support to nft_ct, also from Florian. 25) Move nf_conn_help structure to include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_helper.h. 26) Add a fixed 32 bytes scratchpad area for conntrack helpers. Thus, we don't deal with variable conntrack extensions anymore. Make sure userspace conntrack helper doesn't go over that size. Remove variable size ct extension infrastructure now this code got no more clients. From Florian Westphal. 27) Restore offset and length of nf_ct_ext structure to 8 bytes now that wraparound is not possible any longer, also from Florian. 28) Allow to get rid of unassured flows under stress in conntrack, this applies to DCCP, SCTP and TCP protocols, from Florian. 29) Shrink size of nf_conntrack_ecache structure, from Florian. 30) Use TCP_MAX_WSCALE instead of hardcoded 14 in TCP tracker, from Gao Feng. 31) Register SYNPROXY hooks on demand, from Florian Westphal. 32) Use pernet hook whenever possible, instead of global hook registration, from Florian Westphal. 33) Pass hook structure to ebt_register_table() to consolidate some infrastructure code, from Florian Westphal. 34) Use consume_skb() and return NF_STOLEN, instead of NF_DROP in the SYNPROXY code, to make sure device stats are not fooled, patch from Gao Feng. 35) Remove NF_CT_EXT_F_PREALLOC this kills quite some code that we don't need anymore if we just select a fixed size instead of expensive runtime time calculation of this. From Florian. 36) Constify nf_ct_extend_register() and nf_ct_extend_unregister(), from Florian. 37) Simplify nf_ct_ext_add(), this kills nf_ct_ext_create(), from Florian. 38) Attach NAT extension on-demand from masquerade and pptp helper path, from Florian. 39) Get rid of useless ip_vs_set_state_timeout(), from Aaron Conole. 40) Speed up netns by selective calls of synchronize_net(), from Florian Westphal. 41) Silence stack size warning gcc in 32-bit arch in snmp helper, from Florian. 42) Inconditionally call nf_ct_ext_destroy(), even if we have no extensions, to deal with the NF_NAT_MANIP_SRC case.
