Subject: netfilter: ipt_rpfilter: remove the nh_scope test in rpfilter_lookup_reverse
From: lucien <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx>
commit cc4998febd567d1c671684abce5595344bd4e8b2 upstream.
--accept-local option works for res.type == RTN_LOCAL, which should be
from the local table, but there, the fib_info's nh->nh_scope =
RT_SCOPE_NOWHERE ( > RT_SCOPE_HOST). in fib_create_info().
if (cfg->fc_scope == RT_SCOPE_HOST) {
struct fib_nh *nh = fi->fib_nh;
/* Local address is added. */
if (nhs != 1 || nh->nh_gw)
goto err_inval;
nh->nh_scope = RT_SCOPE_NOWHERE; <===
nh->nh_dev = dev_get_by_index(net, fi->fib_nh->nh_oif);
err = -ENODEV;
if (!nh->nh_dev)
goto failure;
but in our rpfilter_lookup_reverse():
if (dev_match || flags & XT_RPFILTER_LOOSE)
return FIB_RES_NH(res).nh_scope <= RT_SCOPE_HOST;
if nh->nh_scope > RT_SCOPE_HOST, it will fail. --accept-local option
will never be passed.
it seems the test is bogus and can be removed to fix this issue.
if (dev_match || flags & XT_RPFILTER_LOOSE)
return FIB_RES_NH(res).nh_scope <= RT_SCOPE_HOST;
ipv6 does not have this issue.
