[PATCH net v4] net: netfilter: Fix port selection of FTP for NF_NAT_RANGE_PROTO_SPECIFIED

From: Cole Dishington
Date: Thu Sep 16 2021 - 00:11:14 EST


FTP port selection ignores specified port ranges (with iptables
masquerade --to-ports) when creating an expectation, based on
FTP commands PORT or PASV, for the data connection.

For masquerading, this issue allows an FTP client to use unassigned source ports
for their data connection (in both the PORT and PASV cases). This can
cause problems in setups that allocate different masquerade port ranges for each
client.

The proposed fix involves storing a port range (on nf_conn_nat) to:
- Fix FTP PORT data connections using the stored port range to select a
port number in nf_conntrack_ftp.
- Fix FTP PASV data connections using the stored port range to specify a
port range on source port in nf_nat_helper if the FTP PORT/PASV packet
comes from the client.

Notes:
Thanks for your time reviewing!

Changes:
- Avoid allocating same port to ftp data connection expectation as used for ftp control.
- Changed ftp port selection back to a for loop with expectation checking.
- Iterate over a range of ports rather than exp dst port to max port.
- Added further description to commit message to detail the problem this patch is fixing.
