commit 02799571714dc5dd6948824b9d080b44a295f695 upstream. Follows up on: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220809170518.164662-1-cascardo@canonical.com/ handle of 0 implies from/to of universe realm which is not very sensible. Lets see what this patch will do: $sudo tc qdisc add dev $DEV root handle 1:0 prio //lets manufacture a way to insert handle of 0 $sudo tc filter add dev $DEV parent 1:0 protocol ip prio 100 \ route to 0 from 0 classid 1:10 action ok //gets rejected... Error: handle of 0 is not valid. We have an error talking to the kernel, -1 //lets create a legit entry.. sudo tc filter add dev $DEV parent 1:0 protocol ip prio 100 route from 10 \ classid 1:10 action ok //what did the kernel insert? $sudo tc filter ls dev $DEV parent 1:0 filter protocol ip pref 100 route chain 0 filter protocol ip pref 100 route chain 0 fh 0x000a8000 flowid 1:10 from 10 action order 1: gact action pass random type none pass val 0 index 1 ref 1 bind 1 //Lets try to replace that legit entry with a handle of 0 $ sudo tc filter replace dev $DEV parent 1:0 protocol ip prio 100 \ handle 0x000a8000 route to 0 from 0 classid 1:10 action drop Error: Replacing with handle of 0 is invalid. We have an error talking to the kernel, -1 And last, lets run Cascardo's POC: $ ./poc 0 0 -22 -22 -22 Signed-off-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com> Acked-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. 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.
