ipv6: rpl: Fix Route of Death.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
A remote DoS vulnerability of RPL Source Routing is assigned CVE-2023-2156.

The Source Routing Header (SRH) has the following format:

  0                   1                   2                   3

The originator of an SRH places the first hop's IPv6 address in the IPv6
header's IPv6 Destination Address and the second hop's IPv6 address as
the first address in Addresses[1..n].

The CmprI and CmprE fields indicate the number of prefix octets that are
shared with the IPv6 Destination Address.  When CmprI or CmprE is not 0,
Addresses[1..n] are compressed as follows:

  1..n-1 : (16 - CmprI) bytes
       n : (16 - CmprE) bytes

Segments Left indicates the number of route segments remaining.  When the
value is not zero, the SRH is forwarded to the next hop.  Its address
is extracted from Addresses[n - Segment Left + 1] and swapped with IPv6
Destination Address.

When Segment Left is greater than or equal to 2, the size of SRH is not
changed because Addresses[1..n-1] are decompressed and recompressed with
CmprI.

OTOH, when Segment Left changes from 1 to 0, the new SRH could have a
different size because Addresses[1..n-1] are decompressed with CmprI and
recompressed with CmprE.

Let's say CmprI is 15 and CmprE is 0.  When we receive SRH with Segment
Left >= 2, Addresses[1..n-1] have 1 byte for each, and Addresses[n] has
16 bytes.  When Segment Left is 1, Addresses[1..n-1] is decompressed to
16 bytes and not recompressed.  Finally, the new SRH will need more room
in the header, and the size is (16 - 1) * (n - 1) bytes.

Here the max value of n is 255 as Segment Left is u8, so in the worst case,
we have to allocate 3825 bytes in the skb headroom.  However, now we only
allocate a small fixed buffer that is IPV6_RPL_SRH_WORST_SWAP_SIZE (16 + 7
bytes).  If the decompressed size overflows the room, skb_push() hits BUG()
below [0].

Instead of allocating the fixed buffer for every packet, let's allocate
enough headroom only when we receive SRH with Segment Left 1.
