[Bug 1896587] [NEW] iptables firewall driver don't drops invalid packets which match some SG rule

 

Public bug reported:

In case if there is e.g. SG rule which allows SCTP traffic defined by user, iptables firewall driver will match such traffic always, even if it's marked as INVALID by conntrack.
It is like that due to order of rules in iptables:

    0     0 DROP       all  --  *      *       0.0.0.0/0            0.0.0.0/0            state INVALID /* Drop packets that appear related to an existing connection (e.g. TCP ACK/FIN) but do not have an entry in conntrack. */
    0     0 neutron-openvswi-sg-fallback  all  --  *      *       0.0.0.0/0            0.0.0.0/0            /* Send unmatched traffic to the fallback chain. */


In case of openvswitch firewall driver it works properly, so INVALID packets are dropped even if they could match some SG rules.
