[PATCH v3 1/4] ipv4: add option to drop unicast encapsulated in L2 multicast
From: Johannes BergIn order to solve a problem with 802.11, the so-called hole-196 attack, add an option (sysctl) called "drop_unicast_in_l2_multicast" which, if enabled, causes the stack to drop IPv4 unicast packets encapsulated in link-layer multi- or broadcast frames. Such frames can (as an attack) be created by any member of the same wireless network and transmitted as valid encrypted frames since the symmetric key for broadcast frames is shared between all stations. Additionally, enabling this option provides compliance with a SHOULD clause of RFC 1122.

I use it in two situations, the first is the most often used case but doesn't apply to this specific situation :-) 1) net-next change submitted while net-next is closed 2) discussion has ensued for several days, no resolution imminent And I think #2 is the case that happened here. You can submit them again to reignite the conversation if you like.

Hi, Is there anything I should do about these patches? I see you marked them as "deferred" in patchwork, but I don't really know how you're using that state. johannes
