When a connection is re-used, following can happen:
[ connection starts to close, fin sent in either direction ]
> syn # initator quickly reuses connection
< ack # peer sends a challenge ack
> rst # rst, sequence number == ack_seq of previous challenge ack
> syn # this syn is expected to pass
Problem is that the rst will fail window validation, so it gets
tagged as invalid.
If ruleset drops such packets, we get repeated syn-retransmits until
initator gives up or peer starts responding with syn/ack.
Before the commit indicated in the "Fixes" tag below this used to work:
The challenge-ack made conntrack re-init state based on the challenge
ack itself, so the following rst would pass window validation.
Add challenge-ack support: If we get ack for syn, record the ack_seq,
and then check if the rst sequence number matches the last ack number
seen in reverse direction.
Fixes: c7aab4f17021 ("netfilter: nf_conntrack_tcp: re-init for syn packets only")
