[PATCH 3.12 062/176] net: Reset secmark when scrubbing packet

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Thu Jan 29 2015 - 05:38:54 EST


From: Thomas Graf <tgraf@xxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

[ Upstream commit b8fb4e0648a2ab3734140342002f68fb0c7d1602 ]

skb_scrub_packet() is called when a packet switches between a context
such as between underlay and overlay, between namespaces, or between
L3 subnets.

While we already scrub the packet mark, connection tracking entry,
and cached destination, the security mark/context is left intact.

It seems wrong to inherit the security context of a packet when going
from overlay to underlay or across forwarding paths.
