net: exclude ipv6 loopback addresses from server.listen#54264

puskin · 2024-08-08T10:18:59Z

This is not a direct take at the dns module. In this PR we discussed how it is better to approach the issue editing the net module instead, filtering out IPV6 loopback addresses when possible.

Fixes: nodejs#51732

If you're adding a file, I don't think it needs the copyright notice. I have no legal experience, so I might be wrong.

Its technically possible to bind to a link-local address with scope fe80::1%eth0, just not to an unscoped link-local address fe80::1. Though

Thats a very weird use case
I've never tried whether that actually currently works with nodejs/net
Web browser clients don't support that, so it would have to be a non-web service
DNS lookup doesn't return the scope, because scope is different for each client. So the problem is sort of special to DNS

IMHO the problem of randomly picking nonsense ipv6 is much worse than the potential regression (if there actually is one)

puskin · 2024-08-08T13:30:20Z

@vbraun very good point. Trying the new test I wrote with something like fe80::dc30:4dff:fede:ce33%awdl0 the call to server.listen does not throw the EADDRNOTAVAIL error but starts listening even tho, as you rightfully mentioned, it is a weird case.
If we want to be super picky I could "loosen" the check and see if the address has a % in the ip, otherwise we can keep it as it

@ShogunPanda fixed a broken test, it looks like the call to server.listen fails with a different error code on a mac compared to linux. Glad to see you here too 😄

I fear it might be a breaking change, but I can't point to the problem. I've added a backing-for-lts label and semver-minor.

The PR title and commit message are incorrect. This function filterOnlyValidAddress excludes link-local addresses (fe80::/10, or fe80:: to febf:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff), not the loopback address (::1).
