Subject: [PATCH] rpc.statd: Bind downcall socket to loopback address
|
||
|
|
||
|
In the past, rpc.statd posted SM_NOTIFY requests using the same socket
|
||
|
it used for sending downcalls to the kernel. To receive replies from
|
||
|
remote hosts, the socket was bound to INADDR_ANY.
|
||
|
|
||
|
With commit f113db52 "Remove notify functionality from statd in
|
||
|
favour of sm-notify" (Mar 20, 2007), the downcall socket is no longer
|
||
|
used for sending requests to remote hosts. However, the downcall
|
||
|
socket is still bound to INADDR_ANY.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Thus a remote host can inject data on this socket since it is an
|
||
|
unconnected UDP socket listening for RPC replies. Thanks to f113db52,
|
||
|
the port number of this socket is no longer controlled by a command
|
||
|
line option, making it difficult to firewall.
|
||
|
|
||
|
We have demonstrated that data injection on this socket can result in
|
||
|
a DoS by causing rpc.statd to consume CPU and log bandwidth, but so
|
||
|
far we have not found a breach.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To prevent unwanted data injection, bind this socket to the loopback
|
||
|
address.
