Jakub Kicinski 32f8807a48 Merge branch 'sctp-enhancements-for-the-verification-tag'
Xin Long says:

====================
sctp: enhancements for the verification tag

This patchset is to address CVE-2021-3772:

  A flaw was found in the Linux SCTP stack. A blind attacker may be able to
  kill an existing SCTP association through invalid chunks if the attacker
  knows the IP-addresses and port numbers being used and the attacker can
  send packets with spoofed IP addresses.

This is caused by the missing VTAG verification for the received chunks
and the incorrect vtag for the ABORT used to reply to these invalid
chunks.

This patchset is to go over all processing functions for the received
chunks and do:

1. Make sure sctp_vtag_verify() is called firstly to verify the vtag from
   the received chunk and discard this chunk if it fails. With some
   exceptions:

   a. sctp_sf_do_5_1B_init()/5_2_2_dupinit()/9_2_reshutack(), processing
      INIT chunk, as sctphdr vtag is always 0 in INIT chunk.

   b. sctp_sf_do_5_2_4_dupcook(), processing dupicate COOKIE_ECHO chunk,
      as the vtag verification will be done by sctp_tietags_compare() and
      then it takes right actions according to the return.

   c. sctp_sf_shut_8_4_5(), processing SHUTDOWN_ACK chunk for cookie_wait
      and cookie_echoed state, as RFC demand sending a SHUTDOWN_COMPLETE
      even if the vtag verification failed.

   d. sctp_sf_ootb(), called in many types of chunks for closed state or
      no asoc, as the same reason to c.

2. Always use the vtag from the received INIT chunk to make the response
   ABORT in sctp_ootb_pkt_new().

3. Fix the order for some checks and add some missing checks for the
   received chunk.

This patch series has been tested with SCTP TAHI testing to make sure no
regression caused on protocol conformance.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
