cfg80211: call cfg80211_stop_ap when switch from P2P_GO type

2021-11-26T10:40:41+00:00

commit 563fbefed46ae4c1f70cffb8eb54c02df480b2c2 upstream. If the userspace tools switch from NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_GO to NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC via send_msg(NL80211_CMD_SET_INTERFACE), it does not call the cleanup cfg80211_stop_ap(), this leads to the initialization of in-use data. For example, this path re-init the sdata->assigned_chanctx_list while it is still an element of assigned_vifs list, and makes that linked list corrupt.

cfg80211: call cfg80211_leave_ocb when switching away from OCB

2021-06-30T12:48:57+00:00

[ Upstream commit a64b6a25dd9f984ed05fade603a00e2eae787d2f ] If the userland switches back-and-forth between NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB and NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC via send_msg(NL80211_CMD_SET_INTERFACE), there is a chance where the cleanup cfg80211_leave_ocb() is not called. This leads to initialization of in-use memory (e.g. init u.ibss while in-use by u.ocb) due to a shared struct/union within ieee80211_sub_if_data: struct ieee80211_sub_if_data { ... union { struct ieee80211_if_ap ap; struct ieee80211_if_vlan vlan; struct ieee80211_if_managed mgd; struct ieee80211_if_ibss ibss; // <- shares address struct ieee80211_if_mesh mesh; struct ieee80211_if_ocb ocb; // <- shares address struct ieee80211_if_mntr mntr; struct ieee80211_if_nan nan; } u; ... } Therefore add handling of otype == NL80211_IFTYPE_OCB, during cfg80211_change_iface() to perform cleanup when leaving OCB mode. link to syzkaller bug: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=0612dbfa595bf4b9b680ff7b4948257b8e3732d5 Reported-by: syzbot+105896fac213f26056f9@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Du Cheng Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210428063941.105161-1-ducheng2@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin

cfg80211: mitigate A-MSDU aggregation attacks

2021-06-03T06:36:13+00:00

commit 2b8a1fee3488c602aca8bea004a087e60806a5cf upstream. Mitigate A-MSDU injection attacks (CVE-2020-24588) by detecting if the destination address of a subframe equals an RFC1042 (i.e., LLC/SNAP) header, and if so dropping the complete A-MSDU frame. This mitigates known attacks, although new (unknown) aggregation-based attacks may remain possible. This defense works because in A-MSDU aggregation injection attacks, a normal encrypted Wi-Fi frame is turned into an A-MSDU frame. This means the first 6 bytes of the first A-MSDU subframe correspond to an RFC1042 header. In other words, the destination MAC address of the first A-MSDU subframe contains the start of an RFC1042 header during an aggregation attack. We can detect this and thereby prevent this specific attack. For details, see Section 7.2 of "Fragment and Forge: Breaking Wi-Fi Through Frame Aggregation and Fragmentation". Note that for kernel 4.9 and above this patch depends on "mac80211: properly handle A-MSDUs that start with a rfc1042 header". Otherwise this patch has no impact and attacks will remain possible.

mac80211: properly handle A-MSDUs that start with an RFC 1042 header

2021-06-03T06:36:13+00:00

commit a1d5ff5651ea592c67054233b14b30bf4452999c upstream. Properly parse A-MSDUs whose first 6 bytes happen to equal a rfc1042 header. This can occur in practice when the destination MAC address equals AA:AA:03:00:00:00. More importantly, this simplifies the next patch to mitigate A-MSDU injection attacks.

cfg80211: fix page refcount issue in A-MSDU decap

2020-01-23T07:20:33+00:00

commit 81c044fc3bdc5b7be967cd3682528ea94b58c06a upstream. The fragments attached to a skb can be part of a compound page. In that case, page_ref_inc will increment the refcount for the wrong page. Fix this by using get_page instead, which calls page_ref_inc on the compound head and also checks for overflow.

cfg80211: Purge frame registrations on iftype change

2019-10-05T10:48:11+00:00

commit c1d3ad84eae35414b6b334790048406bd6301b12 upstream. Currently frame registrations are not purged, even when changing the interface type. This can lead to potentially weird situations where frames possibly not allowed on a given interface type remain registered due to the type switching happening after registration. The kernel currently relies on userspace apps to actually purge the registrations themselves, this is not something that the kernel should rely on. Add a call to cfg80211_mlme_purge_registrations() to forcefully remove any registrations left over prior to switching the iftype.

cfg80211: fix a type issue in ieee80211_chandef_to_operating_class()

2018-10-10T06:54:21+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8442938c3a2177ba16043b3a935f2c78266ad399 ] The "chandef->center_freq1" variable is a u32 but "freq" is a u16 so we are truncating away the high bits. I noticed this bug because in commit 9cf0a0b4b64a ("cfg80211: Add support for 60GHz band channels 5 and 6") we made "freq <= 56160 + 2160 * 6" a valid requency when before it was only "freq <= 56160 + 2160 * 4" that was valid. It introduces a static checker warning: net/wireless/util.c:1571 ieee80211_chandef_to_operating_class() warn: always true condition '(freq <= 56160 + 2160 * 6) => (0-u16max <= 69120)' But really we probably shouldn't have been truncating the high bits away to begin with.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55+00:00

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

networking: make skb_push & __skb_push return void pointers

2017-06-16T15:48:40+00:00

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *, and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not. Make these functions return void * and remove all the casts across the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer was used directly, all done with the following spatch: @@ expression SKB, LEN; typedef u8; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; @@ - *(fn(SKB, LEN)) + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN) @@ expression E, SKB, LEN; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; type T; @@ - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN))) + E = fn(SKB, LEN) @@ expression SKB, LEN; identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum }; @@ - fn(SKB, LEN)[0] + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN) Note that the last part there converts from push(...)[0] to the more idiomatic *(u8 *)push(...).
