Subject: [PATCH v2 net] tcp: md5: incorrect tcp_header_len for incoming connections

In tcp_create_openreq_child we adjust tcp_header_len for md5 using the
remote address in newsk. But that address is still 0 in newsk at this
point, and it is only set later by the callers (tcp_v[46]_syn_recv_sock).
Use the address from the request socket instead.

v2: Added "Fixes:" line.

Fixes: cfb6eeb4c860 ("[TCP]: MD5 Signature Option (RFC2385) support.")

Wait a minute.

Are you sure treq->af_specific is initialized at this point ?

I should have tested this one liner patch really :/

I think that for syncookies, treq->af_specific is not initialized,
because we do not go through
tcp_conn_request() helper, but instead use cookie_tcp_reqsk_alloc()

Before your patch treq->af_specific was only used during SYNACK
generation, which does not happen in syncookie more while receiving
the third packet.

I will test something like this patch. We could move the init after
cookie_tcp_reqsk_alloc() has been called, but I prefer using the same
construct than tcp_conn_request()

Thanks for fixing this Eric. I had not considered syncookies.
