From: liamsmith827 <redacted>
For non-vrf unicast, the on-link fallback currently occurs regardless of
the particular error returned by fib_lookup(). As a result, routes and
rules that are supposed to restrict traffic (blackhole, prohibit,
unreachable) are unable to do so comprehensively.
A specific example of this being a problem is within Android, where the
VPN "kill switch" is implemented with prohibit rules. Any process that
can set flowi4_oif (SO_BINDTODEVICE, IP_UNICAST_IF, IP_PKTINFO, etc.) is
able to utilize this fallback, meaning unprivileged Android apps can
trivially bypass the VPN. This is particularly bad on cellular networks,
where ARP is often not needed.
Restrict the fallback to routing lookup misses.
This was originally observed on an Android device, by way of packet
capture.
Tested fcnal-test.sh in UML with CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES both enabled
and disabled.
