Subject: [PATCH net 2/2] netfilter: h323: avoid secs-to-jiffies overflow in RAS timeout
Date: Wed,  4 Nov 2026 16:59:25 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261104085925.773471-2-l1138897701@163.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261104085925.773471-1-l1138897701@163.com>

From: Qing Luo <luoqing@kylinos.cn>

process_rcf() converts info->timeout with "* HZ" twice, once for the
conntrack refresh and once for the Q.931 expectation, both in 32-bit
arithmetic.  info->timeout is a u32 decoded from the ASN.1 timeToLive
field and only checked for being non-zero, so it is remote-controlled
by both the endpoint (RegistrationRequest) and the gatekeeper
(RegistrationConfirm).

With the signed expiry test "(__s32)(ct->timeout - nfct_time_stamp)
<= 0", a timeout of 2147484 seconds (24.9 days) at HZ=1000 is born
expired, and 4294968 seconds wraps to 704 jiffies.  The RAS connection
therefore drops mid-call, or the Q.931 expectation stays pinned for
days after the peer is gone.

Reuse nf_ct_secs_to_jiffies() for both conversions and compute the
value once.

Sweeping all 2^32-1 inputs at HZ=1000, the helper never wraps, never
yields a value that reads as expired, and matches the old expression
up to INT_MAX / HZ; objdump shows the two 32-bit "imul $0x3e8" in
ras_help() replaced by a 64-bit multiply plus cmp/cmova saturation.
