[patch added to the 3.12 stable tree] net: Reset secmark when scrubbing packet

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

 



From: Thomas Graf <tgraf@xxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

[ Upstream commit b8fb4e0648a2ab3734140342002f68fb0c7d1602 ]

skb_scrub_packet() is called when a packet switches between a context
such as between underlay and overlay, between namespaces, or between
L3 subnets.

While we already scrub the packet mark, connection tracking entry,
and cached destination, the security mark/context is left intact.

It seems wrong to inherit the security context of a packet when going
from overlay to underlay or across forwarding paths.
