commit 1b789577f655060d98d20ed0c6f9fbd469d6ba63 upstream. We get crash when the targets checkentry function tries to make use of the network namespace pointer for arptables. When the net pointer got added back in 2010, only ip/ip6/ebtables were changed to initialize it, so arptables has this set to NULL. This isn't a problem for normal arptables because no existing arptables target has a checkentry function that makes use of par->net. However, direct users of the setsockopt interface can provide any target they want as long as its registered for ARP or UNPSEC protocols. syzkaller managed to send a semi-valid arptables rule for RATEEST target which is enough to trigger NULL deref: kasan: GPF could be caused by NULL-ptr deref or user memory access general protection fault: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN RIP: xt_rateest_tg_checkentry+0x11d/0xb40 net/netfilter/xt_RATEEST.c:109 [..] xt_check_target+0x283/0x690 net/netfilter/x_tables.c:1019 check_target net/ipv4/netfilter/arp_tables.c:399 [inline] find_check_entry net/ipv4/netfilter/arp_tables.c:422 [inline] translate_table+0x1005/0x1d70 net/ipv4/netfilter/arp_tables.c:572 do_replace net/ipv4/netfilter/arp_tables.c:977 [inline] do_arpt_set_ctl+0x310/0x640 net/ipv4/netfilter/arp_tables.c:1456 Fixes: add67461240c1d ("netfilter: add struct net * to target parameters") Reported-by: syzbot+d7358a458d8a81aee898@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Acked-by: Cong Wang <xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
