Sashiko reports for more incorrect IPv6 transport offsets.
The app code for TCP was assuming IPv4 network header
even after the ipvsh argument was provided. This can
cause problems with apps over IPv6. As for the only
official app in the kernel tree (FTP) this problem is
harmless because we use Netfilter to mangle the FTP
ports and we do not adjust the TCP seq numbers.
Also, provide correct offset of the ICMPV6 header in
ip_vs_out_icmp_v6() for correct checksum checks when
the IPv6 packet has extension headers.

The layer 2 encapsulation and layer 3 tunnel information in the xmit
path is taken from the other tuple, because the tunnel information that
is included in the tuple for hashtable lookups is also used to perform
the egress encapsulation in the transmit path.
This patch uses the correct direction when setting up the tunnel, the
original proposed patch to address this fix uses the reversed direction.
While at it, remove the redundant check to call dst_release() to drop
the reference on the dst that was obtained from the forward path, which
is not useful in the direct xmit path unless tunneling is performed.

The "already exists" dedup logic in __nf_conncount_add() decides
whether a connection has already been counted and can be skipped instead
of incrementing the connlimit count. It compares the conntrack zone of a
list entry with the zone of the connection being added using
nf_ct_zone_id() and nf_ct_zone_equal(), passing conn->zone.dir or
zone->dir as the direction argument.
Those helpers take enum ip_conntrack_dir values: IP_CT_DIR_ORIGINAL is 0
and IP_CT_DIR_REPLY is 1. However, zone->dir is a u8 bitmask:
NF_CT_ZONE_DIR_ORIG is 1, NF_CT_ZONE_DIR_REPL is 2 and
NF_CT_DEFAULT_ZONE_DIR is 3. Passing that bitmask as the enum direction
shifts the meaning of every non-zero value. An ORIG-only zone passes 1
and is tested as REPLY, while REPL-only and default zones pass 2 or 3 and
test bits beyond the valid direction range. In those cases
nf_ct_zone_id() can fall back to NF_CT_DEFAULT_ZONE_ID instead of using
the real zone id, so different zones can be treated as equal and dedup
collapses to tuple equality alone.
nf_conncount stores and compares the original-direction tuple for a
connection. If an skb already has an attached conntrack entry,
get_ct_or_tuple_from_skb() explicitly copies
ct->tuplehash[IP_CT_DIR_ORIGINAL].tuple, regardless of the packet's
ctinfo. Therefore the zone comparison in the tuple dedup path must use
IP_CT_DIR_ORIGINAL as well; the zone direction bitmask describes where a
zone id applies, not which direction this conncount tuple represents.
Fix the two dedup comparisons by passing IP_CT_DIR_ORIGINAL directly.
Do not special-case NF_CT_DEFAULT_ZONE_DIR and do not compare raw zone
ids: using the existing helpers with IP_CT_DIR_ORIGINAL preserves the
direction-aware NF_CT_DEFAULT_ZONE_ID fallback. A default bidirectional
zone contains the ORIG bit, so it naturally returns the real zone id;
reply-only zones continue to fall back for original-direction tuple
comparisons.

ecache_work_evict_list() redelivers DESTROY events for conntracks that
were moved to the per-netns dying_list after event delivery failed. It
sets a 10ms deadline:
stop = jiffies + ECACHE_MAX_JIFFIES
but then tests:
time_after(stop, jiffies)
This condition is true while the deadline is still in the future, so the
worker returns STATE_RESTART after the first successful redelivery in the
usual case. ecache_work() maps STATE_RESTART to delay 0, which turns the
redelivery path into one dying conntrack per workqueue dispatch and makes
the sent > 16 batching/cond_resched() path effectively unreachable.
A conntrack netlink listener whose receive queue is congested can make
DESTROY event delivery fail with -ENOBUFS. With sustained conntrack
churn, entries then accumulate on the dying_list and are only drained at
the degraded one-entry-per-dispatch rate once delivery succeeds again,
wasting CPU on back-to-back workqueue reschedules and prolonging
conntrack memory/resource pressure.
In a KASAN QEMU test with CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_EVENTS=y and
nf_conntrack.enable_hooks=1, a congested DESTROY listener caused 8192
nf_ct_delete() calls to return false and move entries to the dying_list.
After closing the listener, the unfixed kernel needed 7670 ecache_work()
entries to destroy 7669 conntracks. With this change, the same 8192
entries were destroyed by 2 ecache_work() entries.
Swap the comparison so the worker restarts only after the deadline has
expired.

set_sctp_state() reads the SCTP chunk header again in order to drive the
IPVS SCTP state table. For IPv6 it computes the offset with
sizeof(struct ipv6hdr), while the surrounding IPVS code uses iph.len from
ip_vs_fill_iph_skb(), where ipv6_find_hdr() has already skipped
extension headers and found the real transport header.
This makes the state machine read from the wrong offset for IPv6 SCTP
packets that carry extension headers. For example, an INIT packet with an
8-byte destination options header can be scheduled correctly by
sctp_conn_schedule(), but set_sctp_state() reads the first byte of the
SCTP verification tag as a DATA chunk type. The connection then moves
from NONE to ESTABLISHED instead of INIT1, gets the longer established
timeout, and updates the active/inactive destination counters
incorrectly. This happens even though the SCTP handshake has not
completed.
Use the parsed transport offset passed down from ip_vs_set_state() for
the SCTP chunk-header lookup. For IPv4 and IPv6 packets without
extension headers this preserves the existing offset.

The combination of IPIP tunnel with direct xmit, eg. bridge device,
breaks because no dst_entry is provided to check the skb headroom and to
set the iph->frag_off field. This leads to invalid dst usage and can
trigger a crash in the tunnel transmit path.
Fix this by moving dst_cache and dst_cookie out of the runtime union so
that they can be shared by neighbour, xfrm, and direct tunnel flows.
For FLOW_OFFLOAD_XMIT_DIRECT tuples carrying tunnel metadata, preserve
route state in these shared fields and release it through the common
dst release path.
Since dst_entry is now available to the three supported xmit modes and
dst_release() already deals with NULL dst, remove the xmit type check
in nft_flow_dst_release(). Moreover, skip the check if the dst entry
is NULL in nf_flow_dst_check() which is now the case for the direct
xmit case.

configuration is not supported.
Check the NF_FLOW_HW flag to know if this entry was already tried once
to be offloaded so this is not retried on refresh when unsupported. Move

detected: resizing will destroy the original set anyway,
so doing gc on it is unnecessary.

Commit 9a05475ceb ("ipvs: avoid kmem_cache_zalloc in
ip_vs_conn_new") changed ip_vs_conn_new() to allocate an ip_vs_conn
object with kmem_cache_alloc(). The function then initializes many
fields explicitly, but only resets in_seq.delta and out_seq.delta in the
two struct ip_vs_seq members.
That leaves init_seq and previous_delta uninitialized. This is normally
harmless while the corresponding IP_VS_CONN_F_IN_SEQ or
IP_VS_CONN_F_OUT_SEQ flag is clear. For connections learned from a sync
message, however, ip_vs_proc_conn() preserves those flags from
IP_VS_CONN_F_BACKUP_MASK and passes opt=NULL when the message omits
IPVS_OPT_SEQ_DATA. In that case the new connection can be hashed with
SEQ flags set but with the rest of in_seq/out_seq still containing stale
slab data.
When a packet for such a connection is later handled by an IPVS
application helper, vs_fix_seq() and vs_fix_ack_seq() use
previous_delta and init_seq to rewrite TCP sequence numbers. A malformed
sync message can therefore make forwarded packets carry stale slab bytes
in their TCP seq/ack numbers, and can also corrupt the forwarded TCP
flow.
Reset both struct ip_vs_seq members completely before publishing the
connection. This matches the existing "reset struct ip_vs_seq" comment
and keeps the sequence-adjustment gates inactive unless valid sequence
data is installed later.

When an ICMP Fragmentation Needed error is received for a tunneled IPVS
connection, ip_vs_in_icmp() recomputes the MTU that the original packet
can use by subtracting the tunnel overhead from the reported next-hop
MTU.
The current code always subtracts sizeof(struct iphdr), which is only
the IPIP overhead. For GUE and GRE tunnels, ipvs_udp_decap() and
ipvs_gre_decap() already compute the additional tunnel header length,
but that value is scoped to the decapsulation block and is lost before
the ICMP_FRAG_NEEDED handling. As a result, the ICMP error sent back to
the client advertises an MTU that is too large, so PMTUD can fail to
converge for GUE/GRE-tunneled real servers.
With a reported next-hop MTU of 1400, a GUE tunnel currently returns
1380 to the client. The correct value is 1368:
1400 - sizeof(struct iphdr) - sizeof(struct udphdr) -
sizeof(struct guehdr)
Hoist the tunnel header length into the main ip_vs_in_icmp() scope and
subtract sizeof(struct iphdr) + ulen in the Fragmentation Needed path.
The IPIP path keeps ulen as 0, so its existing 1400 - 20 = 1380 result
is unchanged.

If a cloned or fragmented SKB is reallocated by skb_ensure_writable(), the
old data buffer is freed. However, nf_nat_sip() fails to update *dptr to
point to the new buffer.
It also appears to use nf_nat_mangle_udp_packet() on what could be a TCP
packet, which would overwrite the sequence number with a checksum update.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
nf_conntrack_sip linerizes skbs, hence no fragmented skb can be seen.
But clones are possible, so rebuild dptr.
Disable nf_nat_mangle_udp_packet() branch for TCP streams.
It doesn't look like this can ever happen, else we should have received
bug reports about this, so just check the conntrack is UDP and drop
otherwise.

After previous patch, writes to network header are restricted.
However, there is another way to manipulate the l3 header: The
checksum update function.
Restrict this for network header writes, only the ipv4 header is
allowed. This needs run-time checks because BRIDGE, INET, NETDEV
families can carry l3 headers other than IP.
checksum updates to the udp/tcp (l4) headers are not restricted.

Don't permit arbitrary writes to linklayer and network header data.
Several spots in network stack trust header validation performed in
ipv4/ipv6 before PRE_ROUTING hook.
For linklayer, allow writes for netdev ingress. For other hooks, only
allow link layer writes that do not spill into network header.
For network header, check the offset/length combinations:
- changing dscp requires store at offset 0 for checsum fixups, so
make sure ip version + length field isn't altered.
- ip6 dscp starts directly after the version field, so make sure it
remains 6.
Several of these checks could already be done at rule insertion time.
Risk is that this might cause ruleset load failures for existing
rulesets. With this change such writes are silently skipped and packet
passes unchanged.
Transport and inner header bases are not checked / restricted.

nfnetlink_queue doesn't allow selective replacements of some part of the
payload, only complete replacement.
If the new data is shorter, skb is trimmed, otherwise expanded.
Add minimal validation of the new ip/ipv6 header. Check total len
matches skb length. Disallow ip option modifications.
IPv6 extension headers are also disabled.
IP options and exthdrs could be allowed later after validation pass or
ip option recompile.
Transport header is not checked.
Bridge modifications are rejected. Given userspace doesn't even receive

A fib expression in a netdev egress base chain dereferences nft_in(pkt),
NULL on the transmit path, causing a NULL pointer dereference at eval.
nft_fib_validate() masks the hook with NF_INET_* values, but netdev hook
numbers are a separate enum that aliases them (NF_NETDEV_EGRESS ==
NF_INET_LOCAL_IN), so an egress chain passes validation and then faults.
Add nft_fib_netdev_validate() that limits each result/flag to the netdev
hook where the device it reads exists: the input-device cases (OIF,
OIFNAME, ADDRTYPE with F_IIF) to ingress, the output-device case (ADDRTYPE
with F_OIF) to egress, ADDRTYPE with no device flag to both. Also restrict
nft_fib_validate() to NFPROTO_IPV4/IPV6/INET so its NF_INET_* masks are
not applied to another family's hooks.

The release path of ip_set_dump_do() and ip_set_dump_done() read
inst->ip_set_list via ip_set_ref_netlink(), a plain rcu_dereference_raw()
of the array pointer. These run from netlink_recvmsg() without the nfnl
mutex and without an RCU read-side critical section.
A concurrent ip_set_create() can grow the array: it publishes the new
array, calls synchronize_net() and then kvfree()s the old one. Since the
dump paths read the array outside any RCU reader, synchronize_net() does
not wait for them and the old array can be freed while they still index
into it, causing a use-after-free.
The dumped set itself stays pinned via set->ref_netlink, so only the
array load needs protecting. Take rcu_read_lock() around it, matching
ip_set_get_byname() and __ip_set_put_byindex().

On memory allocation failure the cloned nft_pipapo_match can enter a bad
state:
- some fields can have their lookup tables resized while others did
not
- bits might have been toggled
- scratch map can be undersized which also means m->bsize_max can be
lower than what is required
This means that the next insertion in the same batch can trigger
out-of-bounds writes.
Furthermore, a failure in the first can result in the bad clone to
leak into the next transaction because the abort callback is never
executed in this case (the upper layer saw an error and no attempt to
allocate a transactional request was made).
Record a state for the nft_pipapo_match structure:
- NEW (pristine clone)
- MOD (modified clone with good state)
- ERR (potentially bogus content)
Then make it so that deletes and insertions fail when the clone
entered ERR state.
In case the very first insert attempt results in an error, free the
clone right away.

nft_synproxy_eval_v4() and nft_synproxy_eval_v6() already take a
whole-object READ_ONCE() snapshot of the shared priv->info state before
building the SYNACK reply, but nft_synproxy_tcp_options() still masks
opts->options with priv->info.options from the live shared object.
When a named synproxy object is updated concurrently with SYN traffic,
the eval path can then mix mss and timestamp handling from the local
snapshot with an options mask taken from a newer configuration, so one
SYNACK no longer reflects a coherent synproxy configuration.
Use info->options so nft_synproxy_tcp_options() stays on the same local

Commit 69894e5b4c ("netfilter: nft_connlimit: update the count if add
was skipped") introduced a regression where packets for valid
connections are dropped when using connlimit for soft-limiting
scenarios.
The issue occurs when a new connection reuses a socket currently in
the TIME_WAIT state. In this scenario, the connection tracking entry
is evaluated as already confirmed. Previously, __nf_conncount_add()
assumed that if a connection was confirmed and did not originate from
the loopback interface, it should skip the addition and return -EEXIST.
Skipping the addition triggers a garbage collection run that cleans up
the TIME_WAIT connection. Consequently, the active connection count
drops to 0, which xt_connlimit mishandles, leading to the false rejection
of the perfectly valid new connection.
Fix this by replacing the interface check with protocol-agnostic state
checks. We now skip the tree insertion and preserve the lockless garbage
collection optimization only if the connection is IPS_ASSURED. This
allows early-confirmed setup packets (such as reused TIME_WAIT sockets
or locally generated SYN-ACKs) to be properly evaluated and counted
without falsely dropping. The goto check_connections path is maintained
to ensure these setup packets are deduplicated correctly.
This has been tested with slowhttptest and HTTP server configured
locally to ensure we are not breaking soft-limiting scenarios for local
or external connections. In addition, it was tested with a OVS zone
limit too.

The out-of-bounds report, though, is a red herring as it is for an
access that shouldn't have happened in the first place.
When nf_nat_init() fails to register its BPF kfuncs, it'll unwind and,
among others, call unregister_pernet_subsys() to deregister its per-net
ops. This makes the previously allocated net id available for reuse by
the next caller of register_pernet_subsys(), in our case, synproxy.
However, 'nat_net_id' will still hold the previously allocated value.
If nf_nat.o gets build as a module, all this doesn't matter. A failed
initialization routine makes the module fail to load and any dependent
module won't be able to load either. However, if nf_nat.o is built-in,
a failing init won't /completely/ make its functionality unavailable to
dependent modules, namely the code and static data is still there, free
to be called by modules like nft_chain_nat.ko.
Case in point, nft_chain_nat registers hooks that'll call into nf_nat
which, in our case, failed to initialize and therefore won't have a
valid net id nor related net_nat object any more.
Code in nf_nat, namely nf_nat_register_fn() and nf_nat_unregister_fn(),
still making use of the reallocated net id, lead to a type confusion as
the call to net_generic() will no longer return memory belonging to an
object suited to fit 'struct nat_net' but 'struct synproxy_net' instead.
The latter is only 24 bytes on 64-bit systems, much smaller than struct
nat_net which is 176 bytes, perfectly explaining the OOB KASAN report.
Detect and handle a failed nf_nat_init() by testing the 'nf_nat_hook'
pointer which will be reset to NULL on initialization errors to prevent
the usage of an invalid nat_net pointer.
As this check is only needed when nf_nat.o is built-in, guard it by
'#ifndef MODULE...'.
