Public bug reported:

The file delivered - /usr/share/ufw/iptables/before.rules
which is then copied to - /etc/ufw/before.rules

Delivered by Package:

# allow dhcp client to work
-A ufw-before-input -p udp --sport 67 --dport 68 -j ACCEPT

The ports for
--sport and --dport are swapped

Should be:

-A ufw-before-input -p udp --sport 68 --dport 67 -j ACCEPT


Package version found in:
  0.36-0ubuntu0.1


Note: ISC DHCP uses RAW sockets, which bypasses iptables anyway and doesn't 
drop the packets with the incorrect configuration. This has had me stumped for 
the last hour.
