Subject: [PATCH next v2] nf-nat: don't use per destination incrementing ports in nat random mode
We currently use prandom_u32 for allocation of ports in tcp bind(0)
and udp code. In case of plain SNAT we try to keep the ports as is or
increment on collision.
SNAT --random mode does use per-destination incrementing port
allocation. As a recent paper pointed out that this mode of port
allocation makes it possible an attacker to find the randomly
allocated ports. So NF_NAT_RANGE_PROTO_RANDOM actually weakens the port
randomization in regard to the attack in this paper.
You can find details in this paper:
<https://sites.google.com/site/hayashulman/files/NIC-derandomisation.pdf>.
The idea is to send burts of packets to a socket to overflow its receive
queue and measure the latency to detect a possible retransmit when the
port is found. Because of increasing ports to given destination and port
further allocations can be predicted.
So switch NF_NAT_RANGE_PROTO_RANDOM to prandom_u32, too.
