Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip6_tunnel: clear skb2->cb[] in ip6ip6_err()
ip6ip6_err() clones an outer IPv6 ICMP error skb, pulls it to the
quoted inner IPv6 packet, and then passes the clone to icmpv6_send().
The clone still carries the outer packet's inet6_skb_parm in skb->cb.
If the outer packet had a Home Address Option, IP6CB(skb2)->dsthao
remains non-zero after skb_pull(). icmpv6_send() later calls
mip6_addr_swap(), which uses that stale dsthao offset against the quoted
inner packet. A malformed inner destination-options header can then make
the HAO lookup and address swap run past the end of the quoted packet
and corrupt skb_shared_info.
Clear skb2->cb[] before pulling the quoted inner IPv6 packet so the
reply path does not reuse metadata left by the outer IPv6 stack.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) tunnel error handling. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted IPv6 ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) error packet with a malformed inner destination-options header. This could lead to memory corruption within the kernel's socket buffer shared information, potentially causing a denial of service (DoS) on the system.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Prevent the ip6_tunnel kernel module from loading:
- Add the module to the blacklist configuration:
echo "install ip6_tunnel /bin/true" > /etc/modprobe.d/disable-ip6_tunnel.conf
echo "blacklist ip6_tunnel" >> /etc/modprobe.d/disable-ip6_tunnel.conf
- If the module is already loaded, attempt to unload it:
modprobe -r ip6_tunnel
Caveats: Disabling this module prevents the creation and operation of IPv6-in-IPv6 tunnels. If the ip6_tunnel module is currently in use by active network interfaces, unloading it will fail, and a system reboot will be required to apply the changes.
