[PATCH 0/1] Netfilter OOB memory access security patch

From: Will McVicker <hidden>
Date: 2020-07-27 17:57:54

Hi,
The attached patch fixes an OOB memory access security bug. The bug is
already fixed in the upstream kernel due to the vulnerable code being
refactored in commit fe2d0020994c ("netfilter: nat: remove
l4proto->in_range") and commit d6c4c8ffb5e5 ("netfilter: nat: remove
l3proto struct"), but the 4.19 and below LTS branches remain vulnerable.
I have verifed the OOB kernel panic is fixed with this patch on both the
4.19 and 4.14 kernels using the approariate hardware.

Please review the fix and apply to branches 4.19.y, 4.14.y, 4.9.y and
4.4.y.

Thanks,
Will

[PATCH 1/1] netfilter: nat: add range checks for access to nf_nat_l[34]protos[]

From: Will McVicker <hidden>
Date: 2020-07-27 17:58:07

The indexes to the nf_nat_l[34]protos arrays come from userspace. So we
need to make sure that before indexing the arrays, we verify the index
is within the array bounds in order to prevent an OOB memory access.
Here is an example kernel panic on 4.14.180 when userspace passes in an
index greater than NFPROTO_NUMPROTO.

If this oops is only triggerable from userspace, I think a sanity
check in nfnetlink_parse_nat_setup should suffice to reject
unsupported layer 3 and layer 4 protocols.

I mean, in this patch I see more chunks in the packet path, such as
nf_nat_l3proto_ipv4 that should never happen. I would just fix the
userspace ctnetlink path.

BTW, do you have a Fixes: tag for this? This will be useful for
-stable maintainer to pick up this fix.

Thanks.

Hi Pablo,

Yes, I believe this oops is only triggered by userspace when the user
specifically passes in an invalid nf_nat_l3protos index. I'm happy to re-work
the patch to check for this in ctnetlink_create_conntrack().
BTW, do you have a Fixes: tag for this? This will be useful for

Regarding the Fixes: tag, I don't have one offhand since this bug was reported
to me, but I can search through the code history to find the commit that
exposed this vulnerability.

Thanks,
Will

Right, the vulnerability has been fixed by the refactor commit fe2d0020994cd
("netfilter: nat: remove l4proto->in_range"), but this patch is a part of
a full re-work of the code and doesn't backport very cleanly to the LTS
branches. So this fix is only applicable to the 4.19, 4.14, 4.9, and 4.4 LTS
branches. I missed the -stable email, but will re-add it to this thread with
the re-worked patch.

Other than that, bail out with EOPNOTSUPP.

Yes, I can confirm the updated patch does fix the kernel panic. I have retested
on the Pixel 4 XL with version 4.14.180. Please see the updated patchset v3.

[PATCH v3 1/1] netfilter: nat: add a range check for l3/l4 protonum

From: Will McVicker <hidden>
Date: 2020-08-24 19:39:03

The indexes to the nf_nat_l[34]protos arrays come from userspace. So
check the tuple's family, e.g. l3num, when creating the conntrack in
order to prevent an OOB memory access during setup.  Here is an example
kernel panic on 4.14.180 when userspace passes in an index greater than
NFPROTO_NUMPROTO.

Re: [PATCH v3 1/1] netfilter: nat: add a range check for l3/l4 protonum

Hi Will,

Given this is for -stable maintainers only, I'd suggest:

1) Specify what -stable kernel versions this patch applies to.
   Explain that this problem is gone since what kernel version.

2) Maybe clarify that this is only for stable in the patch subject,
   e.g. [PATCH -stable v3] netfilter: nat: add a range check for l3/l4

Otherwise, this -stable maintainers might not identify this patch as
something that is targetted to them.

Thanks.

The indexes to the nf_nat_l[34]protos arrays come from userspace. So
check the tuple's family, e.g. l3num, when creating the conntrack in
order to prevent an OOB memory access during setup.  Here is an example
kernel panic on 4.14.180 when userspace passes in an index greater than
NFPROTO_NUMPROTO.

Oh, I overlook, existing kernels are affected. You're right.

I have rebased this patch on top of nf.git, attached what I'll apply
to nf.git.

Did that ever get confirmed? AFAICT, nothing ended up landing in the stable

l3num can only be either NFPROTO_IPV4 or NFPROTO_IPV6.

Other than that, bail out with EOPNOTSUPP.

Thank you.

Hi Will,

Pablo is going to add the latest patch to the nf.git tree. Once that
happens, I'm going to propose the patch in nf.git get cherry-picked to
the -stable branches.

Thanks,
Will
