Subject: [PATCH v2 ipvs] ipvs: fix integer overflow in ftp helper port/address parsing
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2026 15:34:24 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260813183424.47522-1-joasantonio108@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Joas Antonio dos Santos <joasantonio108@gmail.com>

ip_vs_ftp_get_addrport() accumulates decimal digits into a __u16
(hport) and into unsigned char (p[]) without checking for overflow.
A crafted FTP PASV/EPSV response with an over-long port or address
octet wraps the value, so the helper configures the data connection
with a truncated port/address.

The netfilter conntrack FTP helper had the same defect, fixed in
commit 2b413fc689ba ("netfilter: nf_conntrack_ftp: avoid u16
overflows"). Apply the equivalent fix here: widen the port accumulator
to u32 and reject values above 65535, and reject address octets above
255.

Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
