-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 ============================================================================= FreeBSD-SA-19:05.pf Security Advisory The FreeBSD Project Topic: IPv6 fragment reassembly panic in pf(4) Category: contrib Module: pf Announced: 2019-05-14 Credits: Synacktiv Affects: All supported versions of FreeBSD Corrected: 2019-03-01 18:12:05 UTC (stable/12, 12.0-STABLE) 2019-05-14 23:10:21 UTC (releng/12.0, 12.0-RELEASE-p4) 2019-03-01 18:12:07 UTC (stable/11, 11.3-PRERELEASE) 2019-05-14 23:10:21 UTC (releng/11.2, 11.2-RELEASE-p10) CVE Name: CVE-2019-5597 For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories, including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the following sections, please visit . I. Background pf(4) is an Internet Protocol packet filter originally written for OpenBSD. In addition to filtering packets, it also has packet normalization capabilities. II. Problem Description A bug in the pf(4) IPv6 fragment reassembly logic incorrectly uses the last extension header offset from the last received packet instead of from the first packet. III. Impact Malicious IPv6 packets with different IPv6 extensions could cause a kernel panic or potentially a filtering rule bypass. IV. Workaround Only systems leveraging the pf(4) firewall and include packet scrubbing using the recommended 'scrub all in' or similar are affected. V. Solution Perform one of the following: 1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to a supported FreeBSD stable or release / security branch (releng) dated after the correction date. Afterwards, reboot the system. 2) To update your vulnerable system via a binary patch: Systems running a RELEASE version of FreeBSD on the i386 or amd64 platforms can be updated via the freebsd-update(8) utility: # freebsd-update fetch # freebsd-update install Afterwards, reboot the system. 3) To update your vulnerable system via a source code patch: The following patches have been verified to apply to the applicable FreeBSD release branches. a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the detached PGP signature using your PGP utility. # fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-19:05/pf.patch # fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-19:05/pf.patch.asc # gpg --verify pf.patch.asc b) Apply the patch. Execute the following commands as root: # cd /usr/src # patch < /path/to/patch c) Recompile your kernel as described in and reboot the system. VI. Correction details The following list contains the correction revision numbers for each affected branch. Branch/path Revision - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- stable/12/ r344706 releng/12.0/ r347591 stable/11/ r344707 releng/11.2/ r347591 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- To see which files were modified by a particular revision, run the following command, replacing NNNNNN with the revision number, on a machine with Subversion installed: # svn diff -cNNNNNN --summarize svn://svn.freebsd.org/base Or visit the following URL, replacing NNNNNN with the revision number: VII.
