Florian Westphal says: ==================== netfilter: bug fixes for net 1. Fix IP address check in irc DCC conntrack helper, this should check the opposite direction rather than the destination address of the packets' direction, from David Leadbeater. 2. bridge netfilter needs to drop dst references, from Harsh Modi. This was fine back in the day the code was originally written, but nowadays various tunnels can pre-set metadata dsts on packets. 3. Remove nf_conntrack_helper sysctl and the modparam toggle, users need to explicitily assign the helpers to use via nftables or iptables. Conntrack helpers, by design, may be used to add dynamic port redirections to internal machines, so its necessary to restrict which hosts/peers are allowed to use them. It was discovered that improper checking in the irc DCC helper makes it possible to trigger the 'please do dynamic port forward' from outside by embedding a 'DCC' in a PING request; if the client echos that back a expectation/port forward gets added. The auto-assign-for-everything mechanism has been in "please don't do this" territory since 2012. From Pablo. 4. Fix a memory leak in the netdev hook error unwind path, also from Pablo. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netfilter/nf: netfilter: nf_conntrack_irc: Fix forged IP logic netfilter: nf_tables: clean up hook list when offload flags check fails netfilter: br_netfilter: Drop dst references before setting. netfilter: remove nf_conntrack_helper sysctl and modparam toggles ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220901071238.3044-1-fw@strlen.de Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> |

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.
