netfilter: br_netfilter: Drop dst references before setting.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit d047283 ]

The IPv6 path already drops dst in the daddr changed case, but the IPv4
path does not. This change makes the two code paths consistent.

Further, it is possible that there is already a metadata_dst allocated from
ingress that might already be attached to skbuff->dst while following
the bridge path. If it is not released before setting a new
metadata_dst, it will be leaked. This is similar to what is done in
bpf_set_tunnel_key() or ip6_route_input().

It is important to note that the memory being leaked is not the dst
being set in the bridge code, but rather memory allocated from some
other code path that is not being freed correctly before the skb dst is
overwritten.

An example of the leakage fixed by this commit found using kmemleak:

Florian Westphal says: "Original code was likely fine because nothing
ever did set a skb->dst entry earlier than bridge in those days."
