In Scenario A and B below, as the delayed INIT_ACK always changes the peer
vtag, SCTP ct with the incorrect vtag may cause packet loss.
Scenario A: INIT_ACK is delayed until the peer receives its own INIT_ACK
192.168.1.2 > 192.168.1.1: [INIT] [init tag: 1328086772]
192.168.1.1 > 192.168.1.2: [INIT] [init tag: 1414468151]

192.168.1.1 > 192.168.1.2: [INIT ACK] [init tag: 1650211246] *
192.168.1.2 > 192.168.1.1: [COOKIE ECHO]
192.168.1.1 > 192.168.1.2: [COOKIE ECHO]
192.168.1.2 > 192.168.1.1: [COOKIE ACK]
Scenario B: INIT_ACK is delayed until the peer completes its own handshake
192.168.1.2 > 192.168.1.1: sctp (1) [INIT] [init tag: 3922216408]
192.168.1.1 > 192.168.1.2: sctp (1) [INIT] [init tag: 144230885]
192.168.1.2 > 192.168.1.1: sctp (1) [INIT ACK] [init tag: 3922216408]
192.168.1.1 > 192.168.1.2: sctp (1) [COOKIE ECHO]
192.168.1.2 > 192.168.1.1: sctp (1) [COOKIE ACK]
192.168.1.1 > 192.168.1.2: sctp (1) [INIT ACK] [init tag: 3914796021] *
This patch fixes it as below:
In SCTP_CID_INIT processing:
- clear ct->proto.sctp.init[!dir] if ct->proto.sctp.init[dir] &&
ct->proto.sctp.init[!dir]. (Scenario E)
- set ct->proto.sctp.init[dir].
In SCTP_CID_INIT_ACK processing:
- drop it if !ct->proto.sctp.init[!dir] && ct->proto.sctp.vtag[!dir] &&
ct->proto.sctp.vtag[!dir] != ih->init_tag. (Scenario B, Scenario C)
- drop it if ct->proto.sctp.init[dir] && ct->proto.sctp.init[!dir] &&
ct->proto.sctp.vtag[!dir] != ih->init_tag. (Scenario A)
In SCTP_CID_COOKIE_ACK processing:
- clear ct->proto.sctp.init[dir] and ct->proto.sctp.init[!dir]. (Scenario D)
Also, it's important to allow the ct state to move forward with cookie_echo
and cookie_ack from the opposite dir for the collision scenarios.
There are also other Scenarios where it should allow the packet through,
addressed by the processing above:
Scenario C: new CT is created by INIT_ACK.
Scenario D: start INIT on the existing ESTABLISHED ct.
Scenario E: start INIT after the old collision on the existing ESTABLISHED ct.
192.168.1.2 > 192.168.1.1: sctp (1) [INIT] [init tag: 3922216408]
192.168.1.1 > 192.168.1.2: sctp (1) [INIT] [init tag: 144230885]
(both side are stopped, then start new connection again in hours)
192.168.1.2 > 192.168.1.1: sctp (1) [INIT] [init tag: 242308742]
