This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled ipv6/udp: use sticky pktinfo egress ifindex on connect() to the linux-3.16.y-queue branch of the 3.16.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-3.16.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.16.7-ckt26. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.16.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From c548b32aa079ef8276362277109cbd4b58bd202d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Date: Fri, 29 Jan 2016 12:30:20 +0100 Subject: ipv6/udp: use sticky pktinfo egress ifindex on connect() commit 1cdda91871470f15e79375991bd2eddc6e86ddb1 upstream. 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.
