Engineering Team, which is subscribed to neutron. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1938670 Title: Linuxbridge ARP filter bypass on Netfilter platforms (CVE-2021-38598) Status in neutron: Confirmed Status in OpenStack Security Advisory: Fix Released Bug description: We are running an OpenStack cloud with linux bridge. We have found that, in certain conditions, ARP spoofing protection is not working as intended. This allows a user do bad things like spoof gratuitous ARP to DoS another user's virtual machine. More details below. In an environment using linux bridge, neutron-linuxbridge-agent uses ebtables to prevent ARP spoofing. A list of typical ebtables rules for a VM looks like this: :neutronMAC-tapdb545a8c-8f DROP :neutronARP-tapdb545a8c-8f DROP -A PREROUTING -i tapdb545a8c-8f -j neutronMAC-tapdb545a8c-8f -A PREROUTING -p ARP -i tapdb545a8c-8f -j neutronARP-tapdb545a8c-8f -A neutronMAC-tapdb545a8c-8f -i tapdb545a8c-8f --among-src fa:16:3e:84:cd:b4 -j RETURN -A neutronARP-tapdb545a8c-8f -p ARP --arp-ip-src 192.0.2.5 -j ACCEPT The neutronARP-xxx chain, however, has a problem during the creation of it. The source for that [1] looks like this: ebtables(['-N', vif_chain, '-P', 'DROP']) ebtables(['-F', vif_chain]) This creates a chain with default policy of DROP, and FLUSHes any existing rules. However, we have found that in certain OS, the FLUSH reverts the default policy back to RETURN. E.g. root@jake-focal:~# eatables -t nat -N newchain -P DROP root@jake-focal:~# ebtables-save | grep newchain :newchain DROP root@jake-focal:~# ebtables -t nat -F newchain root@jake-focal:~# ebtables-save | grep newchain :newchain RETURN root@jake-focal:~# ebtables --version ebtables 1.8.4 (nf_tables) The OSes that exhibit this issue seems to be OSes that uses ebtables- nft - Ubuntu Focal, CentOS Stream. Ubuntu Bionic is fine. E.g. root@jake-bionic:~# ebtables -t nat -N newchain -P DROP root@jake-bionic:~# ebtables-save | grep newchain :newchain DROP root@jake-bionic:~# ebtables -t nat -F newchain root@jake-bionic:~# ebtables-save | grep newchain :newchain DROP root@jake-bionic:~# ebtables --version ebtables v2.0.10-4 (December 2011) I have a patch for this, but as this is a security issue I am refraining from posting it up to OpenStack's Gerrit. Also, this might have been fixed in master, but it still affects Ussuri and Victoria. Please advise on what I should do next?
