[PATCH] iptables: xtables_ipmask_to_numeric incorrect with non-CIDR masks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As pointed out by Peter Hoelsken, rules created with non-standard masks such as
0.255.0.0, 0.0.255.0, etc. are displayed when output with iptables -L in CIDR
notation as -1.  This is because the cidr variable in xtables_ipmask_to_numeric
is unsigned, and the return value of -1 from xtables_ipmask_to_cidr is therefore
converted to 4294967295.  Add a cast to workaround the issue.

This closes netfilter bugzilla #854.
