Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== pull-request: bpf-next 2018-09-25 The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree. The main changes are: 1) Allow for RX stack hardening by implementing the kernel's flow dissector in BPF. Idea was originally presented at netconf 2017 [0]. Quote from merge commit: [...] Because of the rigorous checks of the BPF verifier, this provides significant security guarantees. In particular, the BPF flow dissector cannot get inside of an infinite loop, as with CVE-2013-4348, because BPF programs are guaranteed to terminate. It cannot read outside of packet bounds, because all memory accesses are checked. Also, with BPF the administrator can decide which protocols to support, reducing potential attack surface. Rarely encountered protocols can be excluded from dissection and the program can be updated without kernel recompile or reboot if a bug is discovered. [...] Also, a sample flow dissector has been implemented in BPF as part of this work, from Petar and Willem.
