From 1ac530b3553e0b4dc1e18a32bed57cfa84cd57cb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wei Yongjun Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2009 22:29:31 +0000 Subject: tcp: missing check ACK flag of received segment in FIN-WAIT-2 state RFC0793 defined that in FIN-WAIT-2 state if the ACK bit is off drop the segment and return[Page 72]. But this check is missing in function tcp_timewait_state_process(). This cause the segment with FIN flag but no ACK has two diffent action: Case 1: Node A Node B <------------- FIN,ACK (enter FIN-WAIT-1) ACK -------------> (enter FIN-WAIT-2) FIN -------------> discard (move sk to tw list) Case 2: Node A Node B <------------- FIN,ACK (enter FIN-WAIT-1) ACK -------------> (enter FIN-WAIT-2) (move sk to tw list) FIN -------------> <------------- ACK This patch fixed the problem.
