4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 037b0b86ecf5646f8eae777d8b52ff8b401692ec ] Lets not turn the TCP ULP lookup into an arbitrary module loader as we only intend to load ULP modules through this mechanism, not other unrelated kernel modules: [root@bar]# cat foo.c #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <linux/tcp.h> #include <linux/in.h> int main(void) { int sock = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0); setsockopt(sock, IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_ULP, "sctp", sizeof("sctp")); return 0; } [root@bar]# gcc foo.c -O2 -Wall [root@bar]# lsmod | grep sctp [root@bar]# ./a.out [root@bar]# lsmod | grep sctp sctp 1077248 4 libcrc32c 16384 3 nf_conntrack,nf_nat,sctp [root@bar]# Fix it by adding module alias to TCP ULP modules, so probing module via request_module() will be limited to tcp-ulp-[name]. The existing modules like kTLS will load fine given tcp-ulp-tls alias, but others will fail to load: [root@bar]# lsmod | grep sctp [root@bar]# ./a.out [root@bar]# lsmod | grep sctp [root@bar]# Sockmap is not affected from this since it's either built-in or not.
