From 1cdda91871470f15e79375991bd2eddc6e86ddb1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo Abeni Date: Fri, 29 Jan 2016 12:30:20 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ipv6/udp: use sticky pktinfo egress ifindex on connect() Currently, the egress interface index specified via IPV6_PKTINFO is ignored by __ip6_datagram_connect(), so that RFC 3542 section 6.7 can be subverted when the user space application calls connect() before sendmsg(). Fix it by initializing properly flowi6_oif in connect() before performing the route lookup. Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa Signed-off-by: David S.
