Description of problem:

ss crashes when the filter is too long/complex

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

iproute-2.6.32-54.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:

Very reliable

Steps to Reproduce:

1. valgrind -q ss -tn state established 'src 10.0.0.31:22 || src 10.0.0.32:22 || src 10.0.0.33:22 || src 10.0.0.34:22 || src 10.0.0.35:22 || src 10.0.0.36:22 || src 10.0.0.37:22 || src 10.0.0.38:22'  

Actual results:

  Recv-Q Send-Q    Local Address:Port      Peer Address:Port 
  ==4372== Warning: silly arg (-100) to malloc()
  Aborted (core dumped)

Expected results:

  A possibly empty list of connections.  valgrind still complains but it is at least non-fatal.

Additional info:

This can obviously be recreated without valgrind.  However, valgrind points out the nature of the problem.

The problem is that the following upstream commit is missing:

    ss: avoid passing negative numbers to malloc
    
    Example:
    
    $ ss state established \( sport = :4060  or sport = :4061 or sport = :4062  or sport = :4063 or sport = :4064  or sport = :4065 or sport = :4066  or sport = :4067 \)  > /dev/null
    Aborted
    
    In the example above ssfilter_bytecompile(...) will return (int)136.
    char l1 = 136; means -120 which will result in a negative number
    being passed to malloc at misc/ss.c:913.
    
    Simply declare l1 and l2 as integers to avoid the char overflow.
    
    This is one of the issues originally reported in http://bugs.debian.org/511720
    
    Fix the same problem in other code paths as well (thanks to Eric Dumazet).
