*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***
You have been subscribed to a public security bug by Seth Arnold (seth-arnold):
Conditions:
Workstation with alone network interface into local net with dhcp server.
Dist.: kubuntu 12.04 amd64
Problem:
Network manager sets incorrect metrics for local and default routes:
default route has METRIC=0
local route has METRIC=1
As result, local addresses are looked for into Internet instead of local net.
Removing of Network Manager with configuring of interface into
/etc/network/interface decides the problem:
local route has METRIC=0
default route has METRIC=100
Security issue: results are like as for arp spoofing.
** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Tags: metric network-manager routing
