Description rashey 2021-03-28 13:08:34 UTC
Hi,

The traceroute6 command with -I argument does not work anymore.

I did not notice any other issues with data transfer or ping response.

I also restored 12.1 from backup to make sure that there is no any issues with tunnel broker service and everything works well with the same configuration.

The traceroute6.c from stable/12 works great with stable/13 kernel.

Patch for traceroute6.c

Hi rashey,
  Can you please test if this patch works? Thanks :)

Comment 3 Zhenlei Huang freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2021-03-29 08:46:28 UTC
The review D25604 capsicumize traceroute6, and use connect / send instead of sendto. For ICMPV6 there may be ICMP6_DST_UNREACH type packets from intermediate gateways, and they will not be captured by the pre-connected socket IIUC.

Here comes the solution, let's separate the connected socket (sndsock) from receive socket (rcvsock) as same as UDP / TCP / SCTP routines.

Looking.  The patch works for me in a simple test but I don't quite understand why.
Comment 6 Mark Johnston freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2021-03-31 22:41:34 UTC
Ugh, we don't limit rights on rcvsock.  Thanks for catching this.  Please give this a try: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D29523
Comment 7 Zhenlei Huang freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2021-04-01 04:44:34 UTC
(In reply to Mark Johnston from comment #6)
The patch D29523 works greatly :)

I do not have a FreeBSD phabricator account, and just registered one and the account is not approved yet. So I comment directly here.

Summary from review D29523:
> For ICMP6 we were using the same socket for both, and we limited rights
on the socket such that it's impossible to receive anything.

At first glance it seems the regression was due to no sufficient rights on receiving socket, and I tried setting CAP_RECV on the receiving socket without luck, I also tried disabling capsicum entirely and it behaves the same. So the root cause is not no sufficient rights on receiving socket. 

Limit rights on the recv socket is great :)

PS, man of cap_rights_limit gives an example entering capability mode before limiting rights. I tried setting CAP_RECV on recv socket after entering capability mode it also works greatly :-)  I'm not familiar with capsicum and it's pleasant if someone clarify this.

    traceroute6: Fix Capsicum rights for rcvsock

    - Always use distinct sockets for send and recv
    - Limit rights on the recv socket

    For ICMP6 we were using the same socket for both send and receive, and
    we limited rights on the socket such that it's impossible to receive
    anything.
