 BUGTRAQ:20020508 [CARTSA-20020402] Linux Netfilter NAT/ICMP code information leak
 REDHAT:RHSA-2002:086
 MANDRAKE:MDKSA-2002:030
 HP:HPSBTL0205-039
 XF: linux-netfilter-information-leak(9043)
 BID:4699
Description: 
 The Network Address Translation (NAT) capability for Netfilter ("iptables") 
 1.2.6a and earlier leaks translated IP addresses in ICMP error messages.
Notes: 
 There's a patch here:
  http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/4699
 But it doesn't appear to have gone upstream.  It doesn't look like RedHat
 or Mandrake fixed it either; instead, they suggest a workaround:
  http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2002-086.html
  http://archives.mandrivalinux.com/security-announce/2002-02/msg00025.html
 .
 dannf> We plan to "fix" this by recommending the workaround as well.
 horms> I believe that this problem was fixed as part of the following
 horms> patch that was incuded in 2.6.11
 horms> http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=1e69ba3fa29b13fe5229d6e325aee91ae5abe298
 horms> However I believe a related bug was introduced by the following 
 horms> patch, also included in 2.6.11
 horms> http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=8d5f3377d48c74df38990688f09e773887ba4eb5
 horms> This new bugs allows discloser of the IP address of intermedate 
 horms> hops between the NATing box and the NAT'd box.
 horms> This is easily demonstrated using tcptraceroute
 horms> 1  10.0.1.7  61.524 ms  93.081 ms  22.982 ms
 horms> 2  192.168.1.254  72.099 ms  66.899 ms  67.599 ms 
 horms> 3  10.0.1.7 [open]  67.188 ms  105.974 ms  104.873 ms
 horms> I also believe that pretty much all kernels disclose
 horms> enough information to work out if DNAT is in use or not.
 horms> I wrote a long mail about this to netfilter-devel and will
 horms> put a link here when it shows up
 horms> In the mean time: (Message-ID: <20060202113824.GA4399@verge.net.au>)
 horms> Given this seems to be an ongoing suite of problems, with little
 horms> hope of a final solution, I'm marking it as ignore for all
 horms> woody and sarge kernels, many of which i have reproduced the
 horms> problem on allong with upstream's 2.4 (~2.4.33-pre1)
