This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled net: inet_diag: zero out uninitialized idiag_{src,dst} fields to the 3.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: net-inet_diag-zero-out-uninitialized-idiag_-src-dst-fields.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Mon Jan 13 09:28:30 PST 2014 From: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 17 Dec 2013 00:38:39 +0100 Subject: net: inet_diag: zero out uninitialized idiag_{src,dst} fields From: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit b1aac815c0891fe4a55a6b0b715910142227700f ] Jakub reported while working with nlmon netlink sniffer that parts of the inet_diag_sockid are not initialized when r->idiag_family != AF_INET6. That is, fields of r->id.idiag_src[1 ... 3], r->id.idiag_dst[1 ... 3]. In fact, it seems that we can leak 6 * sizeof(u32) byte of kernel [slab] memory through this. At least, in udp_dump_one(), we allocate a skb in ... rep = nlmsg_new(sizeof(struct inet_diag_msg) + ..., GFP_KERNEL); ... and then pass that to inet_sk_diag_fill() that puts the whole struct inet_diag_msg into the skb, where we only fill out r->id.idiag_src[0], r->id.idiag_dst[0] and leave the rest untouched: r->id.idiag_src[0] = inet->inet_rcv_saddr; r->id.idiag_dst[0] = inet->inet_daddr; struct inet_diag_msg embeds struct inet_diag_sockid that is correctly / fully filled out in IPv6 case, but for IPv4 not. So just zero them out by using plain memset (for this little amount of bytes it's probably not worth the extra check for idiag_family == AF_INET). Similarly, fix also other places where we fill that out. Reported-by: Jakub Zawadzki <darkjames-ws@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
