linux: Add LTS version 4.19.52

This fixes *Linux and FreeBSD Kernel: Multiple TCP-based remote denial
of service issues* [1].

> Netflix has identified several TCP networking vulnerabilities in FreeBSD
> and Linux kernels.
>
> The vulnerabilities specifically relate to the minimum segment size (MSS)
> and TCP Selective Acknowledgement (SACK) capabilities. The most serious,
> dubbed “SACK Panic,” allows a remotely-triggered kernel panic on recent
> Linux kernels.
>
> There are patches that address most of these vulnerabilities. If patches
> can not be applied, certain mitigations will be effective. We recommend
> that affected parties enact one of those described below, based on their
> environment.
>
> #1: CVE-2019-11477: SACK Panic (Linux >= 2.6.29)
>
> Description: A sequence of SACKs may be crafted such that one can trigger
> an integer overflow, leading to a kernel panic.
>
> Fix: Apply the attached patch (“PATCH_net_1_4.patch”). Additionally,
> versions of the Linux kernel up to, and including, 4.14 require a second
> patch (“PATCH_net_1a.patch”).
>
> Workaround #1: Block connections with a low MSS using one of the attached
> filters. (The values in the filters are examples. You can apply a higher or
> lower limit, as appropriate for your environment.) Note that these filters
> may break legitimate connections which rely on a low MSS. Also, note that
> this mitigation is only effective if TCP probing is disabled (that is, the
> net.ipv4.tcp_mtu_probing sysctl is set to 0, which appears to be the
> default value for that sysctl).
>
> Workaround #2: Disable SACK processing (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_sack set to
> 0).
>
> (Note that either workaround should be sufficient on its own. It is not
> necessary to apply both workarounds.)
>
>
> #2: CVE-2019-11478: SACK Slowness (Linux < 4.15) or Excess Resource Usage
> (all Linux versions)
>
> Description: It is possible to send a crafted sequence of SACKs which will
> fragment the TCP retransmission queue. On Linux kernels prior to 4.15, an
> attacker may be able to further exploit the fragmented queue to cause an
> expensive linked-list walk for subsequent SACKs received for that same TCP
> connection.
>
> Fix: Apply the attached patch (“PATCH_net_2_4.patch”)
>
> Workaround #1: Block connections with a low MSS using one of the attached
> filters. (The values in the filters are examples. You can apply a higher or

>
> #3: CVE-2019-5599: SACK Slowness (FreeBSD 12 using the RACK TCP Stack)
>
> Description: It is possible to send a crafted sequence of SACKs which will
> fragment the RACK send map. An attacker may be able to further exploit the
> fragmented send map to cause an expensive linked-list walk for subsequent
> SACKs received for that same TCP connection.
>
> Workaround #1: Apply the attached patch (“split_limit.patch”) and set the
> net.inet.tcp.rack.split_limit sysctl to a reasonable value to limit the
> size of the SACK table.
>
> Workaround #2: Temporarily disable the RACK TCP stack.
>
> (Note that either workaround should be sufficient on its own. It is not
> necessary to apply both workarounds.)
>
>
> #4: CVE-2019-11479: Excess Resource Consumption Due to Low MSS Values (all
> Linux versions)
>
> Description: An attacker can force the Linux kernel to segment its
> responses into multiple TCP segments, each of which contains only 8 bytes
> of data. This drastically increases the bandwidth required to deliver the
> same amount of data. Further, it consumes additional resources (CPU and NIC
> processing power). This attack requires continued effort from the attacker
> and the impacts will end shortly after the attacker stops sending traffic.
>
> Fix: Two attached patches (“PATCH_net_3_4.patch” and “PATCH_net_4_4.patch”)
> add a sysctl which enforces a minimum MSS, set by the
> net.ipv4.tcp_min_snd_mss sysctl. This lets an administrator enforce a
> minimum MSS appropriate for their applications.
>
> Workaround: Block connections with a low MSS using one of the attached
> filters. (The values in the filters are examples. You can apply a higher or
> lower limit, as appropriate for your environment.) Note that these filters
> may break legitimate connections which rely on a low MSS. Also, note that
> this mitigation is only effective if TCP probing is disabled (that is, the
> net.ipv4.tcp_mtu_probing sysctl is set to 0, which appears to be the
> default value for that sysctl).
>
>
> Note: Good system and application coding and configuration practices
> (limiting write buffers to the necessary level, monitoring connection
> memory consumption via SO_MEMINFO, and aggressively closing misbehaving
> connections) can help to limit the impact of attacks against these kinds of
> vulnerabilities.
