When a config makes use of hdr_ip(x-forwarded-for,-1) or any such thing
involving a negative occurrence count, the header is still parsed in the
order it appears, and an array of up to MAX_HDR_HISTORY entries is created.
When more entries are used, the entries simply wrap and continue this way.
A problem happens when the incoming header field count exactly divides
MAX_HDR_HISTORY, because the computation removes the number of requested
occurrences from the count, but does not care about the risk of wrapping
with a negative number. Thus we can dereference the array with a negative
number and randomly crash the process.
The bug is located in http_get_hdr() in haproxy 1.5, and get_ip_from_hdr2()
in haproxy 1.4. It affects configurations making use of one of the following
functions with a negative <value> occurence number :
- hdr_ip(<name>, <value>) (in 1.4)
- hdr_*(<name>, <value>) (in 1.5)
It also affects "source" statements involving "hdr_ip(<name>)" since that
statement implicitly uses -1 for <value> :
- source 0.0.0.0 usesrc hdr_ip(<name>)
A workaround consists in rejecting dangerous requests early using
hdr_cnt(<name>), which is available both in 1.4 and 1.5 :
block if { hdr_cnt(<name>) ge 10 }
This bug has been present since the introduction of the negative offset
count in 1.4.4 via commit bce70882. It has been reported by David Torgerson
who offered some debugging traces showing where the crash happened, thus
making it significantly easier to find the bug!
CVE-2013-2175 was assigned to this bug.
This fix must absolutely be backported to 1.4.
Commit 5adeda1 (acl: add option -m to change the pattern matching method)
was not completely correct with regards to boolean fetches. It only used
the sample type to determine if the test had to be performed as a boolean
instead of relying on the match function. Due to this, a test such as the
following would not correctly match as the pattern would be ignored :
acl srv_down srv_is_up(s2) -m int 0
No backport is needed as this was merged first in 1.5-dev18.
This is useful in order to take different actions across restarts without
touching the configuration (eg: soft-stop), or to pass some information
such as the local host name to the next hop.
This one is wrong, never matches and cannot work. It was brought by a blind
copy-paste from the url_* version in 1.5-dev9, but there is no underlying
fetch returning an IP type for this.
The split between ACL and sample fetch was a terrible mess in the doc,
as it caused all entries to be duplicated with most of them not easy to
find, some missing and some wrong.
The new approach consists in describing the sample fetch methods and
indicating the ACLs that are derived from these fetches. The doc is
much smaller (1500 lines added, 2200 removed, net gain = 700 lines)
and much clearer.
The description of the ACL mechanics was revamped to take account of
the latest evolutions and clearly describe the compatibility between
types of fetches and ACL patterns.
The deprecated keywords have been marked as such, though they still
appear in the examples given for various other keywords.
The following 15 ACLs were missed from previous review, and are not needed
either.
hdr_cnt, hdr_ip, hdr_val, rep_ssl_hello_type, req_len, req_ssl_hello_type,
scook_cnt, scook_val, shdr_cnt, shdr_ip, shdr_val, url_ip, url_port,
urlp_val, req_proto_http.
Commit bef91e71 added the possibility to automatically use some fetch
functions instead of ACL functions, but for the fetch output type was
never used and setting the match method using -m was always mandatory.
Some fetch types are non-ambiguous and can intuitively be associated
with some ACL types :
SMP_T_BOOL -> bool
SMP_T_UINT/SINT -> int
SMP_T_IPV4/IPV6 -> ip
So let's have the ACL expression parser detect these ones automatically.
Other types are more ambiguous, especially everything related to strings,
as there are many string matching methods available and none of them is
the obvious standard matching method for any string. These ones will still
have to be specified using -m.
This configures the client-facing connection to receive a PROXY protocol
header before any byte is read from the socket. This is equivalent to
having the "accept-proxy" keyword on the "bind" line, except that using
the TCP rule allows the PROXY protocol to be accepted only for certain
IP address ranges using an ACL. This is convenient when multiple layers
of load balancers are passed through by traffic coming from public
hosts.
"set-mark" is used to set the Netfilter MARK on all packets sent to the
client to the value passed in <mark> on platforms which support it. This
value is an unsigned 32 bit value which can be matched by netfilter and
by the routing table. It can be expressed both in decimal or hexadecimal
format (prefixed by "0x"). This can be useful to force certain packets to
take a different route (for example a cheaper network path for bulk
downloads). This works on Linux kernels 2.6.32 and above and requires
admin privileges.
This manipulates the TOS field of the IP header of outgoing packets sent
to the client. This can be used to set a specific DSCP traffic class based
on some request or response information. See RFC2474, 2597, 3260 and 4594
for more information.
Some users want to disable logging for certain non-important requests such as
stats requests or health-checks coming from another equipment. Other users want
to log with a higher importance (eg: notice) some special traffic (POST requests,
authenticated requests, requests coming from suspicious IPs) or some abnormally
large responses.
This patch responds to all these needs at once by adding a "set-log-level" action
to http-request/http-response. The 8 syslog levels are supported, as well as "silent"
to disable logging.
Some actions were clearly missing to process response headers. This
patch adds a new "http-response" ruleset which provides the following
actions :
- allow : stop evaluating http-response rules
- deny : stop and reject the response with a 502
- add-header : add a header in log-format mode
- set-header : set a header in log-format mode
Since commit cfd97c6f was merged into 1.5-dev14 (BUG/MEDIUM: checks:
prevent TIME_WAITs from appearing also on timeouts), some valid health
checks sometimes used to show some TCP resets. For example, this HTTP
health check sent to a local server :
19:55:15.742818 IP 127.0.0.1.16568 > 127.0.0.1.8000: S 3355859679:3355859679(0) win 32792 <mss 16396,nop,nop,sackOK,nop,wscale 7>

19:55:15.745488 IP 127.0.0.1.8000 > 127.0.0.1.16568: FP 1:146(145) ack 23 win 257
19:55:15.747109 IP 127.0.0.1.16568 > 127.0.0.1.8000: R 23:23(0) ack 147 win 257
After some discussion with Chris Huang-Leaver, it appeared clear that
what we want is to only send the RST when we have no other choice, which
means when the server has not closed. So we still keep SYN/SYN-ACK/RST
for pure TCP checks, but don't want to see an RST emitted as above when
the server has already sent the FIN.
The solution against this consists in implementing a "drain" function at
the protocol layer, which, when defined, causes as much as possible of
the input socket buffer to be flushed to make recv() return zero so that
we know that the server's FIN was received and ACKed. On Linux, we can make
use of MSG_TRUNC on TCP sockets, which has the benefit of draining everything
at once without even copying data. On other platforms, we read up to one
buffer of data before the close. If recv() manages to get the final zero,
we don't disable lingering. Same for hard errors. Otherwise we do.
In practice, on HTTP health checks we generally find that the close was
pending and is returned upon first recv() call. The network trace becomes
cleaner :
19:55:23.650621 IP 127.0.0.1.16561 > 127.0.0.1.8000: S 3982804816:3982804816(0) win 32792 <mss 16396,nop,nop,sackOK,nop,wscale 7>

19:55:23.650666 IP 127.0.0.1.16561 > 127.0.0.1.8000: . ack 1 win 257
19:55:23.651615 IP 127.0.0.1.16561 > 127.0.0.1.8000: P 1:23(22) ack 1 win 257
19:55:23.651696 IP 127.0.0.1.8000 > 127.0.0.1.16561: FP 1:146(145) ack 23 win 257
19:55:23.652628 IP 127.0.0.1.16561 > 127.0.0.1.8000: F 23:23(0) ack 147 win 257
19:55:23.652655 IP 127.0.0.1.8000 > 127.0.0.1.16561: . ack 24 win 257
This change should be backported to 1.4 which is where Chris encountered
this issue. The code is different, so probably the tcp_drain() function
will have to be put in the checks only.
The req.hdr and res.hdr fetch methods do not work well on headers which
are allowed to contain commas, such as User-Agent, Date or Expires.
More specifically, full-length matching is impossible if a comma is
present.
This patch introduces 4 new fetch functions which are designed to work
with these full-length headers :
- req.fhdr, req.fhdr_cnt
- res.fhdr, res.fhdr_cnt
These ones do not stop at commas and permit to return full-length header
values.
People who use "option dontlog-normal" are bothered with redirects and
stats being logged and reported as errors in the logs ("PR" = proxy
blocked the request).
This patch introduces a new flag 'L' for when a request is locally
processed, that is not considered as an error by the log filters. That
way we know a request was intercepted and processed by haproxy without
logging the line when "option dontlog-normal" is in effect.
Since 1.5-dev12 and commit 3bf1b2b8 (MAJOR: channel: stop relying on
BF_FULL to take action), the HTTP parser switched to channel_full()
instead of BF_FULL to decide whether a buffer had enough room to start
parsing a request or response. The problem is that channel_full()
intentionally ignores outgoing data, so a corner case exists where a
large response might still be left in a response buffer with just a
few bytes left (much less than the reserve), enough to accept a second
response past the last data, but not enough to permit the HTTP processor
to add some headers. Since all the processing relies on this space being
available, we can get some random crashes when clients pipeline requests.
The analysis of a core from haproxy configured with 20480 bytes buffers
shows this : with enough "luck", when sending back the response for the
first request, the client is slow, the TCP window is congested, the socket
buffers are full, and haproxy's buffer fills up. We still have 20230 bytes
of response data in a 20480 response buffer. The second request is sent to
the server which returns 214 bytes which fit in the small 250 bytes left
in this buffer. And the buffer arrangement makes it possible to escape all
the controls in http_wait_for_response() :
|<------ response buffer = 20480 bytes ------>|
[ 2/2 | 3 | 4 | 1/2 ]
^ start of circular buffer
1/2 = beginning of previous response (18240)
2/2 = end of previous response (1990)
3 = current response (214)
4 = free space (36)
- channel_full() returns false (20230 bytes are going to leave)
- the response headers does not wrap at the end of the buffer
- the remaining linear room after the headers is larger than the
reserve, because it's the previous response which wraps :
=> response is processed
Header rewriting causes it to reach 260 bytes, 10 bytes larger than what
the buffer could hold. So all computations during header addition are
wrong and lead to the corruption we've observed.
All the conditions are very hard to meet (which explains why it took
almost one year for this bug to show up) and are almost impossible to
reproduce on purpose on a test platform. But the bug is clearly there.
This issue was reported by Dinko Korunic who kindly devoted a lot of
time to provide countless traces and cores, and to experiment with
troubleshooting patches to knock the bug down. Thanks Dinko!
No backport is needed, but all 1.5-dev versions between dev12 and dev18
included must be upgraded. A workaround consists in setting option
forceclose to prevent pipelined requests from being processed.
I left a mistake in my previous patch bringing the crt-list feature,
it breaks clients with no SNI support.
Also remove the useless wildp = NULL as per a previous discussion.
We were using "tune.ssl.maxrecord 2000" and discovered an interesting
problem: SSL data sent from the server to the client showed occasional
corruption of the payload data.
The root cause was:
When ssl_max_record is smaller than the requested send amount
the ring buffer wrapping wasn't properly adjusting the
number of bytes to send.
I solved this by selecting the initial size based on the number
of output bytes that can be sent without splitting _before_ checking
against ssl_max_record.
We're often missin a third counter to track base, src and base+src at
the same time. Here we introduce track_sc3 to have this third counter.
It would be wise not to add much more counters because that slightly
increases the session size and processing time though the real issue
is more the declaration of the keywords in the code and in the doc.
By properly affecting the flags and values, it becomes easier to add
more tracked counters, for example for experimentation. It also slightly
reduces the code and the number of tests. No counters were added with
this patch.
Adds a suggestion in README howto link against a static build of openssl.
This is useful if the OS includes an old openssl releas and recent features
or ciphers are required.
This new pattern fetch returns the client certificate's SHA-1 fingerprint
(i.e. SHA-1 hash of DER-encoded certificate) in a binary chunk.
This can be useful to pass it to a server in a header or to stick a client
to a server across multiple SSL connections.
FreeBSD uses (IPPROTO_IP, IP_BINDANY) and (IPPROTO_IPV6, IPV6_BINDANY)
to enable transparent proxy on a socket.
This patch adds support for the relevant setsockopt() calls.
This patch does not change the logic of the code, it only changes the
way OS-specific defines are tested.
At the moment the transparent proxy code heavily depends on Linux-specific
defines. This first patch introduces a new define "CONFIG_HAP_TRANSPARENT"
which is set every time the defines used by transparent proxy are present.
This also means that with an up-to-date libc, it should not be necessary
anymore to force CONFIG_HAP_LINUX_TPROXY during the build, as the flags
will automatically be detected.
The CTTPROXY flags still remain separate because this older API doesn't
work the same way.
A new line has been added in the version output for haproxy -vv to indicate
what transparent proxy support is available.
When freeing ACL regex, we don't want to perform the free() in regex_free()
as it's already performed in free_pattern(). The double free only happens
when using PCRE_JIT when freeing everything during exit so it's harmless
but exhibits libc errors during a reload/restart.
Bug reported by Seri.
Improve the crt-list file format to allow a rule to negate a certain SNI :
<crtfile> [[!]<snifilter> ...]
This can be useful when a domain supports a wildcard but you don't want to
deliver the wildcard cert for certain specific domains.
Sometimes it's very useful to visit duplicates of a same node, but doing
so from the application is not convenient because keys have to be compared,
while all the information is available during the next/prev steps.
Let's introduce a couple of new eb_next_dup/eb_prev_dup functions to visit
only duplicates of the current node and return NULL once it's done. Now we
have all 3 combinations :
- next : returns next node in the tree
- next_dup : returns next dup in the sub-tree
- next_unique : returns next value after skipping dups
(cherry picked from commit 3327b8ae6866f3878322a1a29e70b450226d216d)
Global compression settings (windowsize and memlevel) were only considered
for the gzip algorithm but not the deflate algorithm. Since a single allocator
is used for both algos, if gzip was first initialized the memory with parameters
smaller than default, then initializing deflate after with default settings
would result in overusing the small allocated areas.
To fix this, we make use of deflateInit2() for deflate_init() as well.
Thanks to Godbach for reporting this bug, introduced by in 1.5-dev13 by commit
8b52bb38. No backport is needed.
It happens that openssl's API can differ between versions, causing some
serious trouble if the version used at runtime is not the same as used
for building.
Now we report the two versions separately along with a warning if the
version differs (except the patch version).
Source function will not work with the following line in default section:
source 0.0.0.0 usesrc clientip
even that related settings by iptables and ip rule have been set correctly.
But it can work well in backend setcion.
The reason is that the operation in line 1815 in cfgparse.c as below:
curproxy->conn_src.opts = defproxy.conn_src.opts & ~CO_SRC_TPROXY_MASK;
clears three low bits of conn_src.opts which stores the configuration of
'usesrc'. Without correct bits set, the source address function can not
work well. They should be copied to the backend proxy without being modified.
Since conn_src.tproxy_addr had not copied from defproxy to backend proxy
while initializing backend proxy, source function will not work well
with explicit source address set in default section either.
