Reading TCP stats when using TCP Illinois congestion control algorithm can cause a divide by zero kernel oops. The division by zero occur in tcp_illinois_info() at: do_div(t, ca->cnt_rtt); where ca->cnt_rtt can become zero (when rtt_reset is called) Steps to Reproduce: 1. Register tcp_illinois: # sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=illinois 2. Monitor internal TCP information via command "ss -i" # watch -d ss -i 3. Establish new TCP conn to machine Either it fails at the initial conn, or else it needs to wait for a loss or a reset. This is only related to reading stats. The function avg_delay() also performs the same divide, but is guarded with a (ca->cnt_rtt > 0) at its calling point in update_params(). Thus, simply fix tcp_illinois_info(). Function tcp_illinois_info() / get_info() is called without socket lock. Thus, eliminate any race condition on ca->cnt_rtt by using a local stack variable. Simply reuse info.tcpv_rttcnt, as its already set to ca->cnt_rtt. Function avg_delay() is not affected by this race condition, as its called with the socket lock.

John W. Linville says: ==================== This is a batch of fixes intended for 3.7... The biggest portion of this is a pull request from Johannes Berg: "Please pull my mac80211.git tree per below to get a number of fixes. I have included a patch from Antonio to fix a memcpy overrun, Felix's patches for the antenna gain/tx power issues, a few mesh-related fixes from Javier for mac80211 and my own patches to not access data that might not be present in an skb at all as well as a patch (the duplicate IE check one) to make mac80211 forward-compatible with potential future spec extensions that use the same IE multiple times. It's a bit bigger than I'd like maybe, but I think all of these are worthwhile fixes at this point." In addition... Felix Fietkau fixes an ath9k use-after-free issue. Stanislaw Gruszka adds a valid value check to rt2800. Sven Eckelmann adds a check to only check a TID value in a BlockAck, for frames that could be either a BlockAck or a normal Ack. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Sven Eckelmann authored
The ath9k xmit functions for AMPDUs can send frames as non-aggregate in case only one frame is currently available. The client will then answer using a normal Ack instead of a BlockAck. This acknowledgement has no TID stored and therefore the hardware is not able to provide us the corresponding TID. The TID set by the hardware in the tx status descriptor has to be seen as undefined and not as a valid TID value for normal acknowledgements. Doing otherwise results in a massive amount of retransmissions and stalls of connections. Users may experience low bandwidth and complete connection stalls in environments with transfers using multiple TIDs. This regression was introduced in b11b160d ("ath9k: validate the TID in the tx status information").

Felix Fietkau authored
bf->bf_next is only while buffers are chained as part of an A-MPDU in the tx queue. When a tid queue is flushed (e.g. on tearing down an aggregation session), frames can be enqueued again as normal transmission, without bf_next being cleared. This can lead to the old pointer being dereferenced again later. This patch might fix crashes and "Failed to stop TX DMA!" messages.

The code to allow EAPOL frames even when the station isn't yet marked associated needs to check that the incoming frame is long enough and due to paged RX it also can't assume skb->data contains the right data, it must use skb_copy_bits().

A number of places in the mesh code don't check that the frame data is present and in the skb header when trying to access. Add those checks and the necessary pskb_may_pull() calls.

Due to pskb_may_pull() checking the skb length, all non-management frames are checked on input whether their 802.11 header is fully present.

Linus Torvalds authored
In commit 800179c9 ("This adds symlink and hardlink restrictions to the Linux VFS"), the new link protections were enabled by default, in the hope that no actual application would care, despite it being technically against legacy UNIX (and documented POSIX) behavior. However, it does turn out to break some applications. It's rare, and it's unfortunate, but it's unacceptable to break existing systems, so we'll have to default to legacy behavior. In particular, it has broken the way AFD distributes files, see http://www.dwd.de/AFD/ along with some legacy scripts. Distributions can end up setting this at initrd time or in system scripts: if you have security problems due to link attacks during your early boot sequence, you have bigger problems than some kernel sysctl setting. Do: echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_symlinks echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks to re-enable the link protections. Alternatively, we may at some point introduce a kernel config option that sets these kinds of "more secure but not traditional" behavioural options automatically.
