4.1.1 Release Notes

Open Issues in 4.1.1

Issue ID Description Affects Fixed
3330705
When using TACACS+, a TACACS+ server name that returns more than one IP address, such as an IPv6 and IPv4 address, is counted many times against the limit of seven TACACS+ servers, which might cause some of the later listed servers to be ignored as over the limit. To work around this issue, you can set the prefer_ip_version configuration option (the default value is 4) to choose between an IPv4 or IPv6 address if both are present. 3.7.0-5.3.1 5.4.0
3330654
When using TACACS+, if the /etc/nsswitch.conf file specifies passwd: files tacplus (files is listed before tacplus), the user name mapping might be incorrect; for example, the user name shown in the default prompt might be incorrect. When you use NVUE, this occurs when the priority for the authentication order of local is higher than tacacs. 3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.4.0
3327477
Using su to change to a user specified through TACACS+ results in becoming the local tacacs0 thru tacacs15 user instead of the named user to run sudo commands. When sudo asks for the password of the named user, it is unlikely to match that of the local tacacs0 thru tacacs15 user. 3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.4.0
3216922
RADIUS authenticated users with read-only access to NCLU commands (users in the users_with_show list) can run edit commands if a username for a non-local account is on the users_with_edit line of the /etc/netd.conf file. To work around this issue, make sure that all usernames on the users_with_edit line of the /etc/netd.conf file are configured local users for the system (real Linux users). 3.7.0-5.2.1 5.3.0-5.4.0
3216759
With the ip-acl-heavy TCAM profile, the following message might appear after you install an ACL with NCLU or cl-acltool and the ACL might not work correctly
hal_flx_acl_util.c:378 ERR hal_flx_acl_resource_release resource region 0 size 7387 create failed: No More Resources
To work around this issue, change the TCAM profile to acl-heavy or ip-acl-heavy with ACL non-atomic mode.
3.7.15-4.4.4 4.4.5
3209699
RADIUS authenticated users with read-only access to NCLU commands (users in the users_with_show list) can run edit commands if a username for a non-local account is on the users_with_edit line of the /etc/netd.conf file. To work around this issue, make sure that all usernames on the users_with_edit line of the /etc/netd.conf file are configured local users for the system (real Linux users)
3.7.0-4.3.0, 4.4.0-5.2.1 4.3.1, 5.3.0-5.4.0
3135801
Zebra rejects MAC IP updates from BGP when the MAC mobility sequence number that BGP sends is lower than the sequence number known to zebra
When the MAC mobility sequence that BGP knows legitimately lowers (due to narrow timing conditions during convergence or after rebooting an MLAG pair one VTEP at a time), zebra rejects these updates and maintains a stale state. If the stale information that zebra uses points to the wrong VTEP address, traffic goes to the wrong VTEP and might drop.
4.0.0-4.3.0, 4.4.0-4.4.5 3.7.16, 4.3.1
3123556
When you configure an interface in FRR to send IPv6 RAs before you configure the interface in the /etc/network/interfaces file, the switch does not process IPv6 RAs. To work around this issue, remove the interface configuration in FRR and reapply it. 3.7.15-4.3.0, 4.4.0-5.1.0 4.3.1, 5.2.0-5.4.0
3119615
In an MLAG topology, if you admin down a single connected interface, any dynamic MAC addresses on the peer link are flushed, then added back momentarily, which creates a disruption in traffic. 3.7.15-5.1.0 5.2.0-5.4.0
3093863
The snmpd process will slowly leak memory when you poll TCP-MIB objects. To work around this issue, restart the snmpd service to free memory with the systemctl restart snmpd command. 3.7.16-4.4.3 4.4.4-4.4.5, 5.2.0-5.4.0
3077737
The update-ports.service fails because a blank space in the comment lines of the /etc/cumulus/ports.conf file causes parsing errors
To work around this issue, remove the blank spaces in the commented lines, then restart the update-ports and switchd services.
3.7.15-4.3.0 4.3.1-4.4.5, 4.4.4-4.4.5
3066704
The hostapd service stops working if an 802.1X interface goes up and down many times over a long period of time
To work around this issue, restart the hostapd service with the systemctl restart hostapd command.
3.7.15-4.3.0 4.3.1-4.4.5
3021693
When ARP suppression is off, Cumulus Linux sends GARPs from neighmgrd for remote neighbors over VXLAN. 3.7.15-4.3.0, 4.4.0-4.4.3, 5.0.0-5.1.0 4.3.1, 4.4.4-4.4.5, 5.2.0-5.4.0
3007564
After you delete the last vxlan-remoteip configuration line from the /etc/network/interfaces file and run the ifreload -a command, the corresponding BUM flood entry is not removed. 3.7.15-5.0.1 5.1.0-5.4.0, 5.2.0-5.4.0
2991514
Cumulus Linux can take a long time (100 seconds) to sync a large number of VNIs on a bridge. 3.7.15-4.3.0 4.3.1-4.4.5

2866084
When you reboot a VTEP, MAC address entries might become out of sync between the kernel FDB table and the EVPN MAC VNI table on remote VTEPs. The impacted MAC entries are installed against the rebooted VTEP IP address in the kernel FDB and the correct VTEP IP is present in the EVPN MAC VNI table. To work around this issue, clear all corrupted MAC address entries in the kernel FDB with the bridge fdb del
dev [dst|via] <interface|IP> command, then add “vxlan-learning”: “off” in the /etc/network/ifupdown2/policy.d/vxlan.json file:
$ cat /etc/network/ifupdown2/policy.d/vxlan.json
{
“vxlan”: {
“module_globals”: { “vxlan-purge-remotes”: “no” },
“defaults”: {
“vxlan-ageing”: “1800”,

When you configure BGP aggregate-address summary-only and any component route within the summary updates, all component routes within the summary update in the RIB on the device advertising the summary. This condition might result in increased CPU usage
To workaround this issue, remove the aggregate-address summary-only configuration, add a static route to Null0 for the prefix, and configure an outbound route map to restrict anything more specific than the desired prefix from being advertised. For example: Before:
address-family ipv4 unicast
aggregate-address 10.10.0.0/16 summary-only
redistribute connected
After:
ip route 10.10.0.0/16 Null0
!
address-family ipv4 unicast
redistribute connected route-map DENY-COMPONENTS
redistribute static
exit-address-family
ip prefix-list NO-COMPONENTS seq 5 permit 10.10.0.0/16 ge 17
!
route-map DENY-COMPONENTS deny 10
match ip address prefix-list NO-COMPONENTS
!
route-map DENY-COMPONENTS permit 20
This example assumes no other static routes are present. Otherwise, you might need to configure additional route maps to limit the static routes being redistributed.

The following vulnerabilities have been announced in the openssl packages:
CVE-2021-23840: Calls to EVP_CipherUpdate, EVP_EncryptUpdate and EVP_DecryptUpdate may overflow the output length argument in some cases where the input length is close to the maximum permissable length for an integer on the platform. In such cases the return value from the function call will be 1 (indicating success), but the output length value will be negative. This could cause applications to behave incorrectly or crash.
CVE-2021-23841: The OpenSSL public API function X509_issuer_and_serial_hash() attempts to create a unique hash value based on the issuer and serial number data contained
within an X509 certificate. However it fails to correctly handle any errors that may occur while parsing the issuer field (which might occur if the issuer field is maliciously constructed). This may subsequently result in a NULL pointer deref and a crash leading to a potential denial of service attack.
CVE-2019-1551: There is an overflow bug in the x64_64 Montgomery squaring procedure used in exponentiation with 512-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks against 2-prime RSA1024, 3-prime RSA1536, and DSA1024 as a result of this defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH512 are considered just feasible. However, for an attack the target would have to re-use the DH512 private key, which is not recommended anyway. Also applications directly using the low level API BN_mod_exp may be affected if they use BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.

If switchd successfully signals clagd that it is going down, clagd stops responding to keepalive echo requests from the peer instead of sending a good bye to the peer over both the peerlink and the backup switch. Eventually, the keepalive timer expires and the secondary switch becomes the primary, and brings the bonds and VNIs back up. However, if switchd does not successfully signal it is going down, (in the event of a crash), the primary switch continues to respond to keepalives, and the bonds and VNIs are down on both peers. 3.7.12-3.7.14.2, 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.15-3.7.16

OpenSSH scp is vulnerable to CVE-2020-15778, where clients that have authorized access to the SSH server can execute commands on the server by copying maliciously named files.
The two scenarios where an exploit may be useful to an attacker:
-The user is authorized to scp but not ssh (based on the command option in the authorized_keys file), so this vulnerability can allow executing a remote command on the target computer when not authorized to do so.
-An attacker plants a maliciously named file in a directory tree that someone later uses scp -r to copy over to the target computer.
Be aware that restricting users to scp by using the command option in the authorized_keys file is not effective in preventing those users from executing arbitrary commands on the server.
If you want to use scp -r to copy directory trees, avoid copying directory trees to which attackers may have added maliciously-named files. Archiving the directory tree with tar, zip, or a similar program, then copying the archive over to be extracted on the server avoids having to use scp -r altogether. In addition, OpenSSH provides sftp, which you can use instead of scp to copy files.
To disable scp completely, use /bin/chmod 0 /usr/bin/scp .

If the MAC address of an SVI changes, clagd does not update its permanent neighbor entry for the local interface, and it does not report the change to its MLAG peer. This leaves the MLAG peer in a state where its permanent neighbor for the MLAG peer’s SVI IP address continues to use the old MAC address, which causes routed traffic over this SVI to be dropped.
To work around this issue, ifdown/ifup the SVI when a MAC address changes.

When the dynamic or static flag on a bridge fdb (MAC) entry is changed to the opposite state, the new flag is not set appropriately in hardware. This can allow a static fdb entry to be unexpectedly learned dynamically on a different interface, or can prevent a dynamic entry from being updated or learned elsewhere.
This condition can occur during a manual replacement of a local MAC address or when EVPN updates a dynamic MAC address to add or remove the Sticky Mac flag. Either situation results in the MAC address keeping the original flag in hardware.
To work around this issue, delete or withdraw the fdb entry, then add the static MAC address directly. For example:

bridge fdb del 50:6b:4b:ee:ee:ee dev swp31 vlan 24 master
bridge fdb add 50:6b:4b:ee:ee:ee dev swp31 vlan 24 master [ static | dynamic ]

If you are unable to delete an EVPN-learned remote MAC address, you can replace the dynamic MAC address with a local static one, then delete the static MAC address. For example:

bridge fdb replace 50:6b:4b:ee:ee:ee dev swp31 vlan 24 master static
bridge fdb del 50:6b:4b:ee:ee:ee dev swp31 vlan 24 master
bridge fdb add 50:6b:4b:ee:ee:ee dev swp31 vlan 24 master [ static | dynamic ]
4.0.0-4.2.1 4.3.0-4.4.5
2551111
If a remote EVPN Sticky MAC [Static MAC address] is unexpectedly learned dynamically on a local interface, the selected entries in zebra and BGP are in an inconsistent state.
zebra increments the local MAC mobility sequence number and considers the MAC address to be local, but BGP maintains the remote Sticky MAC as the best path selected. This results in zebra installing the local MAC address and BGP not updating the route for the MAC address.

Several vulnerabilities were discovered in BIND, a DNS server implementation.
bind9-host (containing only /usr/bin/host) and some libraries from the bind9 source package are installed on the switch by default; the BIND server referred to in these vulnerabilities is not installed by default but is available in the repository for optional installation.
CVE-2019-6477: It was discovered that TCP-pipelined queries can bypass tcp-client limits resulting in denial of service.
CVE-2020-8616: It was discovered that BIND does not sufficiently limit the number of fetches performed when processing referrals. An attacker can take advantage of this flaw to cause a denial of service (performance degradation) or use the recursing server in a reflection attack with a high amplification factor.
CVE-2020-8617: It was discovered that a logic error in the code which checks TSIG validity can be used to trigger an assertion failure, resulting in denial of service.

In vtysh, if you configure, then remove a layer 3 VNI for a VRF, the VNI is removed from zebra even if the VNI interface still exists in the kernel.
If you configure a layer 2 VNI as a layer 3 VNI by mistake, removing the layer 3 VNI binding removes it from zebra but EVPN-learned MACs and neighbors are not installed into the kernel.
To work around this issue, delete, then re-add the missing VNI. For example:

cumulus@switch:~$ sudo ifdown vni10100
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo ifup vni10100

If you flap the link with the ip link set vni10100 down; ip link set vni10100 up commands, zebra does not re-add the VNI.

On the Dell S4148T optical module, the low power polarity bit is set incorrectly and the switch port does not come up.
To work around this issue, edit the /etc/hw_init.d/S10qsfp_init.sh file and change the lpmode line to be 0x3f instead of 0x00:

# disable lpmode, reset all QSFP+/QSFP28 ports
echo 0x3f > ${master_cpld}/qsfp_30_25_lpmode
echo 0x3f > ${master_cpld}/qsfp_30_25_modsel
echo 0x3f > ${master_cpld}/qsfp_30_25_reset

Reboot the switch and check that the switch port comes up.
Important: Before upgrading Cumulus Linux 4.x with Debian packages that includes a fix for this problem, you must change the lpmode line back to 0x00.

2549392
When you configure an RD or RT with NCLU, you see duplicate VNI stanzas in the /etc/frr/frr.conf file.
To work around this issue, manually edit the etc/frr/frr.conf file to define advertise-all-vni before the RD or RT configuration within the l2vpn EVPN address family, then reload the FRR service with the sudo systemctl reload frr command.
4.1.0-4.4.5
2549385
FRR incorrectly orders advertise-all-vni to be later in the configuration than manual rd or route-target definitions. This causes the rd or route-target configuration to be misapplied or not applied at all.
To work around this issue, when you manually configure the rd or route-target for a VNI, you must manually edit the /etc/frr/frr.conf file to define advertise-all-vni before the rd or route-target configuration within the l2vpn evpn address family.

With FRR or OSPF, you might see an inconsistent link-state advertisement. For example, when you configure the OSPF default originate route as metric-type 1 with a specific metric, Cumulus Linux shows the default originate route as an external metric-type 2 route with the default metric in the database. This issue typically occurs when both IPv4 and IPv6 default routes exist in the routing table. 3.7.12-4.1.1 4.2.0-4.4.5
2548930
On Mellanox Spectrum switches that contain an OSPF IP unnumbered neighborship with a high scale of prefixes being learned, a link flap might cause the neighbor entry to not be programmed in hardware. 3.7.11-4.2.1 4.3.0-4.4.5

On the EdgeCore Minipack AS8000, storm control does not restrict unknown unicast, broadcast, or multicast traffic. 4.1.1-4.4.5
2548920
If you try to remove BFD configuration with a reload, the FRR service fails. The reload action results in a TypeError: expected string or bytes-like object error.
You see this issue only if there is default configuration, such as configuration in the /etc/frr/frr.conf file that is suppressed from view in the FRR running configuration.
To work around this issue, remove the default configuration lines; for example:

username cumulus nopassword

On the Broadcom switch with the Trident3 ASIC, packet priority remark values assigned from each internal CoS value continue to work with default values; if you change the internal CoS value, the change does not take effect. 3.7.11-4.1.1 4.2.0-4.4.5
2548674
A large number of flapping peers causes FRR to require a corresponding update to internal data structures that track peer information. Updating this internal data structure does not delete links that are down due to the flapping. The size of this array then grows to contain both current peers as well as peers that should have been deleted during the flap processing. The contents of this array is processed by FRR to poll the links, which consumes CPU for all items in the array. This additional polling consumes more CPU than necessary but has no functional impact.
To work around this issue, restart FRR.

2548672
When a multipath route that contains an EVPN path exists together with an IPv4 BGP path in the VRF, the RMAC to VTEP binding is incorrect. This invalid entry occurs because Cumulus Linux treats IPv4 routes received over the eBGP IPv4 peering incorrectly in the VRF.
To work around this issue, remove the unnecessary eBGP IPv4 peering.
3.7.12-3.7.15, 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.16

W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/tigon/tg3_tso.bin for module tg3
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/tigon/tg3.bin for module tg3

You can safely ignore these error messages.

The net show config and net show time ntp server commands do not show NTP server configuration. 4.1.0-4.2.0 4.2.1-4.4.5
2548586
After you flap an MLAG peerlink, a rare condition might occur where routes and neighbors for VXLAN-enabled VLANs are misprogrammed as non-VXLAN routes and neighbors due to VNI state transitions. This results in a forwarding failure for traffic destined to these misprogrammed routes and neighbors.
Note: Do not flap a VNI interface manually. The only expected time for a VNI interface to go down is when the MLAG secondary switch brings the VNIs protodown during a peer link failure where the backup IP address is still active.
To recover from this condition, restart switchd with the sudo systemctl restart switchd command.

If you configure the aggregate-address
summary-only option before injecting a component of the same aggregate into the BGP table with the network or redistribute command, when you remove the aggregate-address configuration, the component stays suppressed; it is not advertised to peers. For example:Existing configuration:
router bgp 1
address-family ipv4 unicast
aggregate-address 50.0.0.0/8 summary-only
exit-address-family
If you add network 50.0.0.1/32, you see the following (expected) BGP table entries:
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, = multipath,
i internal, r RIB-failure, S Stale, R RemovedOrigin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete

Removing aggregate-address 50.0.0.0/8 summary-only at this point results in the following (unexpected) BGP table entry:
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, = multipath,
i internal, r RIB-failure, S Stale, R RemovedOrigin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete

The following security advisory has been announced for bash:
CVE-2019-18276 Qualys scan QID 372268 setuid vulnerability
When bash or bash scripts are run setuid, bash is supposed to drop privileges, but does so incorrectly, so that an attacker with command access to the shell can use enable -f for runtime loading of a new builtin that calls setuid() to regain dropped privileges.
To work around this issue, do not make bash or bash scripts setuid.

These errors are result of user space acting on kernel events a bit slow. The mlxsw_minimal driver is added during kernel boot; An SDK reset causes the driver to be deleted and re-instantiated; User space handler for thermal zone add sees the add first; But the underlying device is deleted before it can act on it. This situation is rectified as the mlxsw_minimal driver is re-instantiated later;

Hardware platforms using the Intel D-1500 CPU series might reboot unexpectedly
To work around this issue, contact your hardware vendor to inquire if a new version of BIOS with a microcode fix is available or manually disable CPU C-states in the kernel as outlined below
To permanently disable C-states using a kernel boot parameter:1. Edit /etc/default/grub to add the argument processor.max_cstate=0 to the variable GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX. For example, if /etc/default/grub file contains the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=“cl_platform=accton_as7726_32x console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 intel_iommu=off pcie_aspm=off”, change it to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=“cl_platform=accton_as7726_32x console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 intel_iommu=off pcie_aspm=off processor.max_cstate=0”2. Run sudo update-grub
3. Reboot the system with sudo reboot
To disable cstates in realtime on the current system, which does not persist through a reboot:1. Confirm that the libpci3 package is installed. Run dpkg-query -l libpci3 and confirm the following line is displayed:ii libpci3:amd64 1:3.2.1-3 amd64 Linux PCI Utilities (shared library)The first field above should read ii. If not, install the libpci3 package by running sudo apt upgrade;sudo apt install libpci3
2. Disable C-states by running the command ./cpupower idle-set -d 2
C-states are disabled by default in Cumulus Linux 4.3.0 and later.

switchd crashes when dynamic VRF route leaking is enabled and the following is true:
* The default route is leaked from VRF1 to VRF2
* Hardware-based dynamic VRF route leaking is configured (vrf_route_leak_enable_dynamic is set to TRUE in the /etc/cumulus/switchd.conf file).
You might see logs similar to the following in /var/log/syslog:

kernel: [159400.526241] switchd[21374]: segfault at 1229cdd84 ip 00000000004142ca sp 00007ffd557a86d0 error 4 in switchd[400000+71000]

To work around this issue, use a route map to filter the default route (the source VRF is imported into the destination VRF).

2546895
If you have configured a higher number of ports and VLANs (ports x VLANs) or the switch is a lower-powered (CPU) platform, the switchd service might fail to send a systemd keepalive within the watchdog timeout value (2 minutes by default) and you see an error similar to the following:
bq. systemd[1]: switchd.service watchdog timeout (limit 2min)!
To workaround this issue, either reduce the number of configured interfaces and, or VLANs, or increase the systemd timeout for switchd.service
To increase the systemd timeout:1.Edit the /etc/systemd/system/switchd.service.d/override.conf file and increase the WatchdogSec parameter
2.Restart the switchd service with the sudo systemctl restart switchd.service command
systemd attempts to restart the switchd service automatically (after the watchdog timeout). If the restart fails multiple times in a short time period, run the sudo systemctl reset-failed command followed by the sudo systemctl restart switchd command.

The EdgeCore Minipack-AS8000 switch supports FEC RS by default; you cannot disable this setting. However, the ethtool –show-fec command output indicates that FEC is disabled. Also, if you try to change the FEC setting, Cumulus Linux reports an error. For example:

cumulus@switch:~$ net add interface swp23 link speed 100000
cumulus@switch:~$ net add interface swp23 link autoneg off
cumulus@switch:~$ net add interface swp23 link fec rs
"/sbin/ifreload -a" failed:

On the EdgeCore Minipack-AS8000 switch, a 100G DAC link does not come up when auto-negotiation is enabled on the neighbor. This switch does not support 100G DAC auto-negotiation at this time. 4.0.0-4.4.5
2546225
When you execute the following command on the Delta AG6248C switch, the switch reboots and then comes right back into Cumulus Linux without installing the new image. The install image is still in /var/lib/cumulus/installer, which causes issues with cl-support.
 
sudo onie-install -fai http://
sudo reboot

To work around this issue, use the onie-select command to access ONIE, and then use the nos-install command in ONIE to install a new binary image.
3.7.11-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2546131
On the Delta AG-6248C PoE switch, when you run the apt upgrade command, the upgrade does not work. Cumulus Linux uses uboot directly instead of grub to boot the kernel. Uboot needs a special header to boot the kernel, which is not present. Without this header, when you use the apt upgrade command to upgrade Linux packages, uboot is unable to boot up the kernel.
To work around this issue, upgrade Cumulus Linux by installing the Cumulus Linux image. Run the onie-select command to go into ONIE, and then use the nos-install command in ONIE to install a new image.
This workaround only works when an out-of-band network is present.
3.7.11-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5

On the Mellanox switch with the Spectrum and Spectrum-2 ASIC, IPv6 egress ACLs are not supported on subinterfaces. 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.14-3.7.16
2545520
The length of the netlink message is not set properly for non-bridge family type messages. The same length is used for both bridge and non-bridge even though the bridge family type message has an extra attribute. This causes extra bytes to be left over in non-bridge family type netlink messages. 3.7.10, 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.11-3.7.16
2545352
With a high number of active routes (20K or more), when you perform a networking restart, the FRR log files might become flooded with error messages associated with the restart. These logs are normal and are not directly a problem. However, the large number of messages can cause the logs to rotate away any previous history, which prevents you from tracing back events leading up to the restart. In a troubleshooting environment, this can be problematic. 4.0.0-4.1.1 4.2.0-4.4.5
2545239
On the Mellanox switch with the Spectrum-2 ASIC, Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is not currently supported. 4.0.0-4.3.1 4.4.0-4.4.5

On the Delta AG9032v1 switch, smonctl and sensors report inaccurate PSU current and power. 4.0.0-4.4.5
2545164
On the Mellanox switch with the Spectrum 2 ASIC, interfaces using 100G or 200G Direct Attach Cables (DACs) do not come up with the interface default configuration.
To work around this issue and bring the interfaces up, perform the following configuration on both sides of the link:
* Set the interface speed to the desired speed
* Set link auto-negotiation to _off_
* Set link FEC to RS mode
4.0.0-4.1.1 4.2.0-4.4.5
2545125
If you configure more than one VRR interface on an SVI interface, deleting one of the VRR addresses does not remove the interface/address. 3.7.10-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2545054
When you run the NCLU net del interface command to delete an interface that has a description in the /etc/frr/frr.conf file but the /etc/frr/daemons file does not contain zebra=yes}, all running FRR daemons (bgpd, ospfd, ospf6d) restart
To work around this issue, remove all interfaces from the /etc/frr/frr.conf file that are unrelated to routing.
4.0.0-4.1.1 4.2.0-4.4.5

If you delete an undefined bond, then add a bond slave, the net commit command fails. 3.7.9-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2544968
FRR configuration commands for an SVI interface might have the \n misplaced in the output. For example:

sudo sh -c “printf ‘interface 50\nvrf TEST description L3 routing interface\n’ » /etc/frr/frr.conf”

should be:

sudo sh -c “printf ‘interface 50 vrf TEST\ndescription L3 routing interface\n’ » /etc/frr/frr.conf”

To work around this issue, configure the interface manually in the /etc/frr/frr.conf file.

NCLU incorrectly allows you to apply port security configuration on layer 2 and layer 3 ports that are not part of a bridge. 4.0.0-4.4.5
2544953
When you update the hostname of a switch with the NCLU net add hostname command, then run net commit, the lldpd service does not restart and other devices still see the old hostname.
To work around this issue, run the sudo systemctl restart lldpd.service command.
3.7.10-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2544904
After you delete an IPv6 numbered BGP peer group neighbor, Cumulus Linux might continue to send route advertisements.

2544723
Setting ProtoDown on ports populated with SFP modules providing RJ-45 1000BASE-T interfaces does not cause the carrier to be dropped. The kernel shows carrier down; however, the remote device still shows a link. 3.7.6-3.7.10, 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.11-3.7.16
2544556
If you reconfigure an NTP server with NCLU using different trailing options after the IP address (such as iburst), an invalid configuration is added to the /etc/ntp.conf file. For example:

net add time ntp server 1.2.3.4 iburst
net commit
net add time ntp server 1.2.3.4
net commit

If you need to alter existing server configurations, first remove the server, commit, then re-add the server with any trailing options.
3.7.9-4.1.1 4.2.0-4.4.5

Auto-negotiation does not work with the QSFP28 cables and a remote system operating at 10G. Attempting to enable auto-negotiation with ethtool -s swp<#> autoneg on returns Operation not supported.
To work around this issue, do not use auto-negotiation and set the local port speed to 10G.
3.7.9-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2544456

Mac learning is not disabled by default on a double tagged peer link interface resulting in the MAC address changing between the MLAG bond and the peer link.
To work around this issue, disable MAC learning on QinQ VLANs by adding bridge-learning off to the VLAN stanza in the etc/network/interfaces file.
3.7.9-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2543937
An interface alias configured outside FRR using iproute2 is imported into the FRR running configuration and overrides the internal description. After an FRR reload, this causes FRR to delete the interface alias in an inefficient way. Depending on how many interfaces with aliases you have configured, this can cause a FRR reload to time out.
To work around this issue, remove the interface alias description from iproute2.

On the EdgeCore AS4610 switch, the ping command fails unless you run the command with sudo.
To work around this issue, run the following commands:

cumulus@switch:~$ sudo setcap cap_net_raw+ep /usr/share/mgmt-vrf/bin/ping
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo setcap cap_net_raw+ep /usr/share/mgmt-vrf/bin/ping6

Run the following command to verify the workaround:
 
cumulus@switch:~$ getcap /usr/share/mgmt-vrf/bin/ping*

You should see the following output:
 
/usr/share/mgmt-vrf/bin/ping = cap_net_raw+ep
/usr/share/mgmt-vrf/bin/ping6 = cap_net_raw+ep

On the Mellanox Spectrum-2 switch, the time required to establish a link (from the time a link is set to admin up until the link becomes operationally up) can take up to 15 seconds on 40G interfaces and up to 30 seconds on 100G interfaces.
To work around this issue, wait up to 15 seconds on 40G interfaces and 30 seconds on 100G interfaces for the link to establish.

The default route injected through OSPF when you configure default-information originate always is unreliable and might age out unexpectedly.
To work around this issue, rely on a different source of default route other than injection with default-information originate.

In some cases, the switchd service might warn of excessive MAC moves from one switch port to itself (for example, from swp18 to swp18).
3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2543164
The MTU of an SVI cannot be higher than the MTU on the bridge. Changing the MTU on the SVI with NCLU does not update the bridge MTU. The net commit command succeeds even though the MTU is not changed as expected.
To work around this issue, change the MTU on all SVIs and the bridge manually in the /etc/network/interfaces file, then apply the change with the ifreload -a command.
3.7.7-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2543096
When an SVI with a virtual MAC is configured with a layer 2 VNI in an EVPN environment, if you replace the /etc/network/interfaces file with a different file that does not have the SVI and layer 2 VNI configuration, the original virtual MAC is not populated through the EVPN route until FRR is restarted.

On the Broadcom Maverick switch with a QinQ configuration, the packets coming into the CPU might be tagged incorrectly; for example, 802.1ad + 802.1q tags are expected in the packets but the packets have 802.1q + 802.1q tags.
To work around this issue, configure the bridge with bridge-vlan-protocol 802.1ad:

cumulus@switch:~$ net add bridge mybridge vlan-protocol 802.1ad
3.7.6-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5

On Mellanox switches, policer iptables are not working as expected. For example, when using a policer with mode KB/MB/GB to rate-limit interfaces, the syntax is accepted but the data plane transfer speed is not affected by the rule. 3.7.6-3.7.8, 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.9-3.7.16
2542305
If an SVI exists in the configuration before you assign it an IP address, when you do assign the IP address with the NCLU command, the vlan-id and the raw-device bridge stanzas are not added automatically.
3.7.6-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5

The maximum-prefix configuration under the IPv4 address family has an optional restart value, which you can configure. This configuration is ignored and, instead of restarting the sessions every x minutes, the peer constantly changes between established and idle due to the prefix count being exceeded. 3.7.5-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2541029
On switches with the Trident2 ASIC, 802.1Q-encapsulated control plane traffic received on an interface with 802.1AD configured subinterfaces might be dropped.
This issue only affects QinQ configurations.

SNMP incorrectly requires engine ID specification.
3.7.4-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2540352
When you use NCLU to configure a route map, the parser allows for glob matching of interfaces for a match interface condition when there can only be a single interface matched. The proper syntax is to use multiple route map clauses, each matching a single interface, instead of a single clause matching multiple interfaces.
For example, this command is incorrect:
 
net add routing route-map Proxy-ARP permit 25 match interface swp9-10

These commands are correct:
 
net add routing route-map Proxy-ARP permit 25 match interface swp9
net add routing route-map Proxy-ARP permit 30 match interface swp10

3.7.2-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2540340
NCLU allows for the configuration of addresses on VRF interfaces, but tab completion for the net add vrf command just displays . For example:
 
cumulus@switch:~$ net add vrf mgmt


Tab completion for the net add vrf ip address
command works correctly.
3.7.4-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5

The net del bridge bridge mcsnoop yes command does not return the value to the default of disabled.
To work around this issue, use the net add bridge bridge mcsnoop no command to delete the mcsnoop attribute and return to the default value.
3.7.4-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2540155
On the Broadcom switch, when moving configuration from bridged to routed (or toggling from routed to bridged to routed), some traffic is not seen by the kernel. This can cause BGP to not establish on a transit node.
3.7.3-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2540042
When you try to configure the VRRP priority and advertisement-interval with NCLU on a traditional mode bridge, the net commit command fails.
To work around this issue, use the vtysh command (inside FRR) to change the VRRP priority or advertisement-interval on traditional bridges. For example:
 
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo vtysh
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface br0.100
switch(config-if)# vrrp 1 priority 110
switch(config-if)# vrrp 1 advertisement-interval
switch(config-if)# end
switch# write memory
switch# exit

3.7.4-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2540041
On SVIs in a VLAN-aware bridge, you cannot change the VRRP priority with NCLU.
To work around this issue, run the vtysh command inside FRR to change the default priority. For example:
 
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo vtysh
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface vlan100
switch(config-if)# vrrp 1 priority 110
switch(config-if)# end
switch# write memory
switch# exit

Cumulus Linux uses VRRPv3 as the default version, and enables both preempt and accept mode by default. You cannot change these default values with NCLU. To work around this issue, run the vtysh commands (inside FRR) to change the default values. For example:
 
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo vtysh
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface swp4
switch(config-if)# vrrp 1 version 2
switch(config-if)# no vrrp 1 preempt
switch(config-if)# end
switch# write memory
switch# exit

When you try to remove a BGP peer group configuration with NCLU, the command fails but no warning message is shown. For example:
 
cumulus@switch:~$ net del bgp neighbor fabric peer-group
‘router bgp 65001’ configuration does not have ‘neighbor fabric peer-group’

On the Edgecore 4610-54P switch, automatic medium-dependent interface crossover (auto-MDIX) stops working on a 100M full duplex interface and does not detect the required cable connection type.
3.7.2-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2539124
The net add interface ptm-enable command adds no ptm-enable for that interface in the frr.conf file.
Running the net add or the net del command does not remove no ptm-enable from the frr.conf file. You have to remove it manually using vtysh.
3.7.2-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2538790
NCLU automatically adds the VLAN ID (for the layer 3 VNI/SVI) to the bridge when you run net add vxlan bridge access . This configuration breaks network connectivity in an EVPN symmetric routing configuration using MLAG.
To restore connectivity, remove the VLAN ID from the bridge.
3.7.2-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2538590
When you configure a control plane ACL to define permit and deny rules destined to the local switch, NCLU programs the control plane ACL rules into the FORWARD chain.
3.7.2-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2538562
On an RMP/1G-T switch, when you remove link-speed 100 with the NCLU command or by editing the etc/network/interfaces file to revert the 100M interface to the default (1G auto), the interface fails to recover and does not come back up.
After you remove the link-speed, ethtool shows the advertised link modes as not reported and Speed/Duplex as unknown.
To work around this issue and bring the interface back up, either restart switchd or use ethtool to configure the speed, advertised, duplex or MDI-X settings.
Note: The advertised link mode gets set incorrectly if you include 1000baseT/Half. The port will come up successfully at 1G.
3.7.2-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2538294
If you use NCLU to create an iBGP peering across the peer link, running the net add bgp l2vpn evpn neighbor peerlink.4094 activate command creates a new eBGP neighborship when one has already been configured for iBGP. This is unexpected; the existing iBGP configuration is valid. 3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2537699
There is a limitation on the number of SVI interfaces you can specify as DHCP relay interfaces in the /etc/default/isc-dhcp-relay file. For example, 1500 SVI interfaces causes the dhcrelay service to exit without a core file and logs similar to the following are generated for the interfaces:
 
2018-11-10T23:35:30.992370-08:00 Dev dhcrelay: Listening on LPF/vlan.101/a0:00:00:00:00:51
2018-11-10T23:35:30.993472-08:00 Dev dhcrelay: Sending on LPF/vlan.101/a0:00:00:00:00:51

Eventually the dhcrelay service stops.

If you try to bring down several members of a bond remotely at the same time, the link state of one of the interfaces might not transition correctly to the down state; however, all links show down in hardware.
4.0.0-4.4.5
2536384
The BFD packet redirection logic used by OVSDB server high availability mode redirects BUM packets across the peer link. The iptables rule for redirection does differentiate between BFD and non-BFD VXLAN inner packets because the service node sends all frames with its own IP address as the tunnel source IP address. The VXLAN encapsulated BUM packets do not get forwarded to the CPU and do not go through the iptable redirection rule; only VXLAN encapsulated BFD packets get forwarded to the CPU due to the inner MAC DA lookup in hardware.
3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2536256
For an unresolved address, the IPROUTER default policer rule has been modified to not match on packets exiting a TUNNEL and headed to the CPU to resolve the address via ARP. As a result, the following default rule no longer matches TUNNEL ingress packets.
 
A $INGRESS_CHAIN –in-interface $INGRESS_INTF -m addrtype –dst-type
IPROUTER -j POLICE –set-mode pkt –set-rate 400 –set-burst 100

These packets are now policed by catch all rules.
To work around this issue, the VPORT value on a TRIDENT switch must be changed from binary 011 to 100.
4.0.0-4.4.5
2536242
On the EdgeCore AS7712 (Tomahawk) switch running in atomic mode, when a layer 3 ECMP path is brought down, traffic traversing the path stops working for about four seconds. When the switch is changed to non-atomic mode, the delay is less than one second. This issue is seen across OSPF and static ECMP routes. 4.0.0-4.4.5
2536179
On switches with the Trident 2+ ASIC, counters associated with VLANs and VRFs are not working. 3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2535986
At a high CPU transmit traffic rate (for example, if there is unexpected CPU generated flooding or replication in software), when the ASIC packet driver cannot keep up with the transmit rate because there are no free DMA buffers, it can back pressure by suspending the switch port transmit queues. This can fill up the application socket buffers resulting in No buffer space available error messages on protocol sockets.
When the driver recovers, it automatically resumes the transmit queues. In most cases these error messages are transient. In rare cases, the hardware queues might get stuck, which you can recover with a switchd restart.
3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2535965
On the Trident3 switch, static PIM with IIF based on a layer 2 bridge does not work reliably. PIM Join via signaling is required for IPMC to work properly.
To work around this issue, use dynamic signaling (joins) to manage IP multicast traffic.
3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2535723
The source address of the ICMPv6 time exceeded message (traceroute hop) is sourced from the wrong VRF when the traceroute target resides on the same switch but in a different VRF. 4.0.0-4.4.5
2535706
On the Mellanox switch, GRE tunneling does not work if the tunnel source is configured on an SVI interface. If the tunnel source is configured on a physical switch port, then tunneling works as expected. 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.14-3.7.16
2535605
FRR does not add BGP ttl-security to either the running configuration or to the /etc/frr/frr.conf file when configured on a peer group instead of a specific neighbor.
To work around this issue, add ttl-security to individual neighbors instead of the peer group.
4.0.0-4.4.5
2535209
The net show lldp command sometimes shows the port description in the Remote Port field. The net show interface command shows the correct value in the Remote Host field.
To work around this issue, use net show interface command for LLDP output when connected to Cisco equipment.

2534977
On the Mellanox switch, the destination MAC address of ERSPAN GRE packets is set to all zeros; therefore, the first transit switch might drop packets. 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.14-3.7.16

Span rules matching the out-interface as a bond do not mirror packets. 4.0.0-4.4.5
2533691
If you configure a VLAN under a VLAN-aware bridge and create a subinterface of the same VLAN on one of the bridge ports, the bridge and interface compete for the same VLAN and if the interface is flapped, it stops working. Correcting the configuration and running the ifreload command does not resolve the conflict.
To work around this issue, correct the bridge VIDs and restart switchd or delete the subinterface.
3.7.12-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2533625
PIM and MSDP entries are set to the internal COS value of 6 so they are grouped together with the bulk traffic priority group in the default traffic.conf file. However, PIM, IGMP, and MSDP are considered control-plane and should be set to the internal COS value of 7. 4.0.0-4.4.5
2533337
When you use NCLU to bring a bond admin down (net add bond link down), the bond interface goes into admin down state but the switch ports enslaved to the bond remain UP. If you are using bond-lacp-bypass-allow or balance-xor mode, the host might continue to send traffic. This traffic will be dropped because although the bond slaves are UP, they are not members of the bridge.
To work around this issue, use the sudo ifdown command.
4.0.0-4.4.5
2531273
In certain cases, a peer device sends an ARP request from a source IP address that is not on the connected subnet and the switch creates a STALE neighbor entry. Eventually, the switch attempts to keep the entry fresh and sends ARP requests to the host. If the host responds, the switch has REACHABLE neighbor entries for hosts that are not on the connected subnet.
To work around this issue, change the value of arp_ignore to 2. See [Address Resolution Protocol in the Cumulus Linux user guide|https://docs.cumulusnetworks.com/cumulus-linux/Layer-3/Address-Resolution-Protocol-ARP/] for more information.
4.0.0-4.4.5

Fixed Issues in 4.1.1

Issue ID Description Affects
2548854
Due to a packaging error, all switches installed from the same Cumulus Linux image have the same SSH host keys. This affects switches originally installed with Cumulus Linux 4.0.0 and 4.1.0 from a disk image only (including those that were upgraded by apt to a later release).

As a result, this issue allows an attacker to more easily bypass remote host verification when a user connects by SSH to what is believed to be a previously used remote host but is really the attacker’s host. For example, this issue can be exploited by a spoofing or man-in-the-middle attack.

To resolve this issue, generate new SSH host keys for any switch that has Cumulus Linux 4.0.0 or 4.1.0 installed on it:


cumulus@switch:~$ sudo rm /etc/ssh/ssh_host*
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo systemctl restart ssh


After generating new SSH host keys, SSH clients that have previously logged into that switch will see a warning that the switch’s SSH host key changed; this is expected behavior. Be sure to inform anyone who may log in to the switch that you generated new SSH host keys. These users must log in to the affected switches with their SSH clients, where they will be given instructions on how to remove the old SSH host keys from the known hosts files to avoid a spoofing or man-in-the-middle attack directed at their SSH clients.

*Notes*

* This issue is fixed in Cumulus Linux 4.1.1. However, we recommend you generate new SSH host keys as this is the most reliable solution.
* If you upgrade from Cumulus Linux 4.0.0 or 4.1.0 to version 4.1.1 or later using apt-get and you didn’t generate new SSH host keys, you will need to generate new SSH host keys after the upgrade.
* If you perform a fresh install of Cumulus Linux 4.1.1 or later using a disk image, you will lose your existing local configuration.

Issue ID Description Affects Fixed
3330705
When using TACACS+, a TACACS+ server name that returns more than one IP address, such as an IPv6 and IPv4 address, is counted many times against the limit of seven TACACS+ servers, which might cause some of the later listed servers to be ignored as over the limit. To work around this issue, you can set the prefer_ip_version configuration option (the default value is 4) to choose between an IPv4 or IPv6 address if both are present. 3.7.0-5.3.1 5.4.0
3330654
When using TACACS+, if the /etc/nsswitch.conf file specifies passwd: files tacplus (files is listed before tacplus), the user name mapping might be incorrect; for example, the user name shown in the default prompt might be incorrect. When you use NVUE, this occurs when the priority for the authentication order of local is higher than tacacs. 3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.4.0
3327477
Using su to change to a user specified through TACACS+ results in becoming the local tacacs0 thru tacacs15 user instead of the named user to run sudo commands. When sudo asks for the password of the named user, it is unlikely to match that of the local tacacs0 thru tacacs15 user. 3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5, 5.0.0-5.4.0

Zebra rejects MAC IP updates from BGP when the MAC mobility sequence number that BGP sends is lower than the sequence number known to zebra
When the MAC mobility sequence that BGP knows legitimately lowers (due to narrow timing conditions during convergence or after rebooting an MLAG pair one VTEP at a time), zebra rejects these updates and maintains a stale state. If the stale information that zebra uses points to the wrong VTEP address, traffic goes to the wrong VTEP and might drop.

When you configure an interface in FRR to send IPv6 RAs before you configure the interface in the /etc/network/interfaces file, the switch does not process IPv6 RAs. To work around this issue, remove the interface configuration in FRR and reapply it. 3.7.15-4.3.0, 4.4.0-5.1.0 4.3.1, 5.2.0-5.4.0

When you configure BGP aggregate-address summary-only and any component route within the summary updates, all component routes within the summary update in the RIB on the device advertising the summary. This condition might result in increased CPU usage
To workaround this issue, remove the aggregate-address summary-only configuration, add a static route to Null0 for the prefix, and configure an outbound route map to restrict anything more specific than the desired prefix from being advertised. For example: Before:
address-family ipv4 unicast
aggregate-address 10.10.0.0/16 summary-only
redistribute connected
After:
ip route 10.10.0.0/16 Null0
!
address-family ipv4 unicast
redistribute connected route-map DENY-COMPONENTS
redistribute static
exit-address-family
ip prefix-list NO-COMPONENTS seq 5 permit 10.10.0.0/16 ge 17
!
route-map DENY-COMPONENTS deny 10
match ip address prefix-list NO-COMPONENTS
!
route-map DENY-COMPONENTS permit 20
This example assumes no other static routes are present. Otherwise, you might need to configure additional route maps to limit the static routes being redistributed.

The following vulnerabilities have been announced in the openssl packages:
CVE-2021-23840: Calls to EVP_CipherUpdate, EVP_EncryptUpdate and EVP_DecryptUpdate may overflow the output length argument in some cases where the input length is close to the maximum permissable length for an integer on the platform. In such cases the return value from the function call will be 1 (indicating success), but the output length value will be negative. This could cause applications to behave incorrectly or crash.
CVE-2021-23841: The OpenSSL public API function X509_issuer_and_serial_hash() attempts to create a unique hash value based on the issuer and serial number data contained
within an X509 certificate. However it fails to correctly handle any errors that may occur while parsing the issuer field (which might occur if the issuer field is maliciously constructed). This may subsequently result in a NULL pointer deref and a crash leading to a potential denial of service attack.
CVE-2019-1551: There is an overflow bug in the x64_64 Montgomery squaring procedure used in exponentiation with 512-bit moduli. No EC algorithms are affected. Analysis suggests that attacks against 2-prime RSA1024, 3-prime RSA1536, and DSA1024 as a result of this defect would be very difficult to perform and are not believed likely. Attacks against DH512 are considered just feasible. However, for an attack the target would have to re-use the DH512 private key, which is not recommended anyway. Also applications directly using the low level API BN_mod_exp may be affected if they use BN_FLG_CONSTTIME.

If switchd successfully signals clagd that it is going down, clagd stops responding to keepalive echo requests from the peer instead of sending a good bye to the peer over both the peerlink and the backup switch. Eventually, the keepalive timer expires and the secondary switch becomes the primary, and brings the bonds and VNIs back up. However, if switchd does not successfully signal it is going down, (in the event of a crash), the primary switch continues to respond to keepalives, and the bonds and VNIs are down on both peers. 3.7.12-3.7.14.2, 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.15-3.7.16

OpenSSH scp is vulnerable to CVE-2020-15778, where clients that have authorized access to the SSH server can execute commands on the server by copying maliciously named files.
The two scenarios where an exploit may be useful to an attacker:
-The user is authorized to scp but not ssh (based on the command option in the authorized_keys file), so this vulnerability can allow executing a remote command on the target computer when not authorized to do so.
-An attacker plants a maliciously named file in a directory tree that someone later uses scp -r to copy over to the target computer.
Be aware that restricting users to scp by using the command option in the authorized_keys file is not effective in preventing those users from executing arbitrary commands on the server.
If you want to use scp -r to copy directory trees, avoid copying directory trees to which attackers may have added maliciously-named files. Archiving the directory tree with tar, zip, or a similar program, then copying the archive over to be extracted on the server avoids having to use scp -r altogether. In addition, OpenSSH provides sftp, which you can use instead of scp to copy files.
To disable scp completely, use /bin/chmod 0 /usr/bin/scp .

If the MAC address of an SVI changes, clagd does not update its permanent neighbor entry for the local interface, and it does not report the change to its MLAG peer. This leaves the MLAG peer in a state where its permanent neighbor for the MLAG peer’s SVI IP address continues to use the old MAC address, which causes routed traffic over this SVI to be dropped.
To work around this issue, ifdown/ifup the SVI when a MAC address changes.

When the dynamic or static flag on a bridge fdb (MAC) entry is changed to the opposite state, the new flag is not set appropriately in hardware. This can allow a static fdb entry to be unexpectedly learned dynamically on a different interface, or can prevent a dynamic entry from being updated or learned elsewhere.
This condition can occur during a manual replacement of a local MAC address or when EVPN updates a dynamic MAC address to add or remove the Sticky Mac flag. Either situation results in the MAC address keeping the original flag in hardware.
To work around this issue, delete or withdraw the fdb entry, then add the static MAC address directly. For example:

bridge fdb del 50:6b:4b:ee:ee:ee dev swp31 vlan 24 master
bridge fdb add 50:6b:4b:ee:ee:ee dev swp31 vlan 24 master [ static | dynamic ]

If you are unable to delete an EVPN-learned remote MAC address, you can replace the dynamic MAC address with a local static one, then delete the static MAC address. For example:

bridge fdb replace 50:6b:4b:ee:ee:ee dev swp31 vlan 24 master static
bridge fdb del 50:6b:4b:ee:ee:ee dev swp31 vlan 24 master
bridge fdb add 50:6b:4b:ee:ee:ee dev swp31 vlan 24 master [ static | dynamic ]

If a remote EVPN Sticky MAC [Static MAC address] is unexpectedly learned dynamically on a local interface, the selected entries in zebra and BGP are in an inconsistent state.
zebra increments the local MAC mobility sequence number and considers the MAC address to be local, but BGP maintains the remote Sticky MAC as the best path selected. This results in zebra installing the local MAC address and BGP not updating the route for the MAC address.

In vtysh, if you configure, then remove a layer 3 VNI for a VRF, the VNI is removed from zebra even if the VNI interface still exists in the kernel.
If you configure a layer 2 VNI as a layer 3 VNI by mistake, removing the layer 3 VNI binding removes it from zebra but EVPN-learned MACs and neighbors are not installed into the kernel.
To work around this issue, delete, then re-add the missing VNI. For example:

cumulus@switch:~$ sudo ifdown vni10100
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo ifup vni10100

If you flap the link with the ip link set vni10100 down; ip link set vni10100 up commands, zebra does not re-add the VNI.

On the Dell S4148T optical module, the low power polarity bit is set incorrectly and the switch port does not come up.
To work around this issue, edit the /etc/hw_init.d/S10qsfp_init.sh file and change the lpmode line to be 0x3f instead of 0x00:

# disable lpmode, reset all QSFP+/QSFP28 ports
echo 0x3f > ${master_cpld}/qsfp_30_25_lpmode
echo 0x3f > ${master_cpld}/qsfp_30_25_modsel
echo 0x3f > ${master_cpld}/qsfp_30_25_reset

Reboot the switch and check that the switch port comes up.
Important: Before upgrading Cumulus Linux 4.x with Debian packages that includes a fix for this problem, you must change the lpmode line back to 0x00.

On Mellanox switches, the thermal monitoring script starts in suspended mode and, as a result, the fans run at sixty percent. You also see the following log message:

hw-management.sh[847]: Thermal algorithm is manually suspend.

To work around this issue, run the following command to enable thermal monitoring:

cumulus@switch:~$ sudo echo 0 > /var/run/hw-management/config/suspend
4.0.0-4.1.1 4.2.0-4.4.5

With FRR or OSPF, you might see an inconsistent link-state advertisement. For example, when you configure the OSPF default originate route as metric-type 1 with a specific metric, Cumulus Linux shows the default originate route as an external metric-type 2 route with the default metric in the database. This issue typically occurs when both IPv4 and IPv6 default routes exist in the routing table. 3.7.12-4.1.1 4.2.0-4.4.5
2548930
On Mellanox Spectrum switches that contain an OSPF IP unnumbered neighborship with a high scale of prefixes being learned, a link flap might cause the neighbor entry to not be programmed in hardware. 3.7.11-4.2.1 4.3.0-4.4.5
2548920
If you try to remove BFD configuration with a reload, the FRR service fails. The reload action results in a TypeError: expected string or bytes-like object error.
You see this issue only if there is default configuration, such as configuration in the /etc/frr/frr.conf file that is suppressed from view in the FRR running configuration.
To work around this issue, remove the default configuration lines; for example:

username cumulus nopassword
4.1.0-4.1.1 4.2.0-4.4.5

Due to a packaging error, all switches installed from the same Cumulus Linux image have the same SSH host keys. This affects switches originally installed with Cumulus Linux 4.0.0 and 4.1.0 from a disk image only (including those that were upgraded by apt to a later release).

As a result, this issue allows an attacker to more easily bypass remote host verification when a user connects by SSH to what is believed to be a previously used remote host but is really the attacker’s host. For example, this issue can be exploited by a spoofing or man-in-the-middle attack.

To resolve this issue, generate new SSH host keys for any switch that has Cumulus Linux 4.0.0 or 4.1.0 installed on it:


cumulus@switch:~$ sudo rm /etc/ssh/ssh_host*
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo systemctl restart ssh


After generating new SSH host keys, SSH clients that have previously logged into that switch will see a warning that the switch’s SSH host key changed; this is expected behavior. Be sure to inform anyone who may log in to the switch that you generated new SSH host keys. These users must log in to the affected switches with their SSH clients, where they will be given instructions on how to remove the old SSH host keys from the known hosts files to avoid a spoofing or man-in-the-middle attack directed at their SSH clients.

*Notes*

* This issue is fixed in Cumulus Linux 4.1.1. However, we recommend you generate new SSH host keys as this is the most reliable solution.
* If you upgrade from Cumulus Linux 4.0.0 or 4.1.0 to version 4.1.1 or later using apt-get and you didn’t generate new SSH host keys, you will need to generate new SSH host keys after the upgrade.
* If you perform a fresh install of Cumulus Linux 4.1.1 or later using a disk image, you will lose your existing local configuration.

On the Broadcom switch with the Trident3 ASIC, packet priority remark values assigned from each internal CoS value continue to work with default values; if you change the internal CoS value, the change does not take effect. 3.7.11-4.1.1 4.2.0-4.4.5
2548674
A large number of flapping peers causes FRR to require a corresponding update to internal data structures that track peer information. Updating this internal data structure does not delete links that are down due to the flapping. The size of this array then grows to contain both current peers as well as peers that should have been deleted during the flap processing. The contents of this array is processed by FRR to poll the links, which consumes CPU for all items in the array. This additional polling consumes more CPU than necessary but has no functional impact.
To work around this issue, restart FRR.

2548672
When a multipath route that contains an EVPN path exists together with an IPv4 BGP path in the VRF, the RMAC to VTEP binding is incorrect. This invalid entry occurs because Cumulus Linux treats IPv4 routes received over the eBGP IPv4 peering incorrectly in the VRF.
To work around this issue, remove the unnecessary eBGP IPv4 peering.

After you flap an MLAG peerlink, a rare condition might occur where routes and neighbors for VXLAN-enabled VLANs are misprogrammed as non-VXLAN routes and neighbors due to VNI state transitions. This results in a forwarding failure for traffic destined to these misprogrammed routes and neighbors.
Note: Do not flap a VNI interface manually. The only expected time for a VNI interface to go down is when the MLAG secondary switch brings the VNIs protodown during a peer link failure where the backup IP address is still active.
To recover from this condition, restart switchd with the sudo systemctl restart switchd command.

If you configure the aggregate-address
summary-only option before injecting a component of the same aggregate into the BGP table with the network or redistribute command, when you remove the aggregate-address configuration, the component stays suppressed; it is not advertised to peers. For example:Existing configuration:
router bgp 1
address-family ipv4 unicast
aggregate-address 50.0.0.0/8 summary-only
exit-address-family
If you add network 50.0.0.1/32, you see the following (expected) BGP table entries:
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, = multipath,
i internal, r RIB-failure, S Stale, R RemovedOrigin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete

Removing aggregate-address 50.0.0.0/8 summary-only at this point results in the following (unexpected) BGP table entry:
Status codes: s suppressed, d damped, h history, * valid, > best, = multipath,
i internal, r RIB-failure, S Stale, R RemovedOrigin codes: i - IGP, e - EGP, ? - incomplete
Network Next Hop Metric LocPrf Weight Paths> 50.0.0.1/32 0.0.0.0 0 32768 i

The following security advisory has been announced for bash:
CVE-2019-18276 Qualys scan QID 372268 setuid vulnerability
When bash or bash scripts are run setuid, bash is supposed to drop privileges, but does so incorrectly, so that an attacker with command access to the shell can use enable -f for runtime loading of a new builtin that calls setuid() to regain dropped privileges.
To work around this issue, do not make bash or bash scripts setuid.

These errors are result of user space acting on kernel events a bit slow. The mlxsw_minimal driver is added during kernel boot; An SDK reset causes the driver to be deleted and re-instantiated; User space handler for thermal zone add sees the add first; But the underlying device is deleted before it can act on it. This situation is rectified as the mlxsw_minimal driver is re-instantiated later;

Hardware platforms using the Intel D-1500 CPU series might reboot unexpectedly
To work around this issue, contact your hardware vendor to inquire if a new version of BIOS with a microcode fix is available or manually disable CPU C-states in the kernel as outlined below
To permanently disable C-states using a kernel boot parameter:1. Edit /etc/default/grub to add the argument processor.max_cstate=0 to the variable GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX. For example, if /etc/default/grub file contains the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=“cl_platform=accton_as7726_32x console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 intel_iommu=off pcie_aspm=off”, change it to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=“cl_platform=accton_as7726_32x console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200n8 intel_iommu=off pcie_aspm=off processor.max_cstate=0”2. Run sudo update-grub
3. Reboot the system with sudo reboot
To disable cstates in realtime on the current system, which does not persist through a reboot:1. Confirm that the libpci3 package is installed. Run dpkg-query -l libpci3 and confirm the following line is displayed:ii libpci3:amd64 1:3.2.1-3 amd64 Linux PCI Utilities (shared library)The first field above should read ii. If not, install the libpci3 package by running sudo apt upgrade;sudo apt install libpci3
2. Disable C-states by running the command ./cpupower idle-set -d 2
C-states are disabled by default in Cumulus Linux 4.3.0 and later.

switchd crashes when dynamic VRF route leaking is enabled and the following is true:
* The default route is leaked from VRF1 to VRF2
* Hardware-based dynamic VRF route leaking is configured (vrf_route_leak_enable_dynamic is set to TRUE in the /etc/cumulus/switchd.conf file).
You might see logs similar to the following in /var/log/syslog:

kernel: [159400.526241] switchd[21374]: segfault at 1229cdd84 ip 00000000004142ca sp 00007ffd557a86d0 error 4 in switchd[400000+71000]

To work around this issue, use a route map to filter the default route (the source VRF is imported into the destination VRF).

If you have configured a higher number of ports and VLANs (ports x VLANs) or the switch is a lower-powered (CPU) platform, the switchd service might fail to send a systemd keepalive within the watchdog timeout value (2 minutes by default) and you see an error similar to the following:
bq. systemd[1]: switchd.service watchdog timeout (limit 2min)!
To workaround this issue, either reduce the number of configured interfaces and, or VLANs, or increase the systemd timeout for switchd.service
To increase the systemd timeout:1.Edit the /etc/systemd/system/switchd.service.d/override.conf file and increase the WatchdogSec parameter
2.Restart the switchd service with the sudo systemctl restart switchd.service command
systemd attempts to restart the switchd service automatically (after the watchdog timeout). If the restart fails multiple times in a short time period, run the sudo systemctl reset-failed command followed by the sudo systemctl restart switchd command.

When you execute the following command on the Delta AG6248C switch, the switch reboots and then comes right back into Cumulus Linux without installing the new image. The install image is still in /var/lib/cumulus/installer, which causes issues with cl-support.
 
sudo onie-install -fai http://
sudo reboot

To work around this issue, use the onie-select command to access ONIE, and then use the nos-install command in ONIE to install a new binary image.
3.7.11-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2546131
On the Delta AG-6248C PoE switch, when you run the apt upgrade command, the upgrade does not work. Cumulus Linux uses uboot directly instead of grub to boot the kernel. Uboot needs a special header to boot the kernel, which is not present. Without this header, when you use the apt upgrade command to upgrade Linux packages, uboot is unable to boot up the kernel.
To work around this issue, upgrade Cumulus Linux by installing the Cumulus Linux image. Run the onie-select command to go into ONIE, and then use the nos-install command in ONIE to install a new image.
This workaround only works when an out-of-band network is present.

The length of the netlink message is not set properly for non-bridge family type messages. The same length is used for both bridge and non-bridge even though the bridge family type message has an extra attribute. This causes extra bytes to be left over in non-bridge family type netlink messages. 3.7.10, 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.11-3.7.16

With a high number of active routes (20K or more), when you perform a networking restart, the FRR log files might become flooded with error messages associated with the restart. These logs are normal and are not directly a problem. However, the large number of messages can cause the logs to rotate away any previous history, which prevents you from tracing back events leading up to the restart. In a troubleshooting environment, this can be problematic. 4.0.0-4.1.1 4.2.0-4.4.5

On the Mellanox switch with the Spectrum 2 ASIC, interfaces using 100G or 200G Direct Attach Cables (DACs) do not come up with the interface default configuration.
To work around this issue and bring the interfaces up, perform the following configuration on both sides of the link:
* Set the interface speed to the desired speed
* Set link auto-negotiation to _off_
* Set link FEC to RS mode

If you configure more than one VRR interface on an SVI interface, deleting one of the VRR addresses does not remove the interface/address. 3.7.10-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2545054
When you run the NCLU net del interface command to delete an interface that has a description in the /etc/frr/frr.conf file but the /etc/frr/daemons file does not contain zebra=yes}, all running FRR daemons (bgpd, ospfd, ospf6d) restart
To work around this issue, remove all interfaces from the /etc/frr/frr.conf file that are unrelated to routing.

FRR configuration commands for an SVI interface might have the \n misplaced in the output. For example:

sudo sh -c “printf ‘interface 50\nvrf TEST description L3 routing interface\n’ » /etc/frr/frr.conf”

should be:

sudo sh -c “printf ‘interface 50 vrf TEST\ndescription L3 routing interface\n’ » /etc/frr/frr.conf”

To work around this issue, configure the interface manually in the /etc/frr/frr.conf file.

Setting ProtoDown on ports populated with SFP modules providing RJ-45 1000BASE-T interfaces does not cause the carrier to be dropped. The kernel shows carrier down; however, the remote device still shows a link. 3.7.6-3.7.10, 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.11-3.7.16
2544556
If you reconfigure an NTP server with NCLU using different trailing options after the IP address (such as iburst), an invalid configuration is added to the /etc/ntp.conf file. For example:

net add time ntp server 1.2.3.4 iburst
net commit
net add time ntp server 1.2.3.4
net commit

If you need to alter existing server configurations, first remove the server, commit, then re-add the server with any trailing options.

Mac learning is not disabled by default on a double tagged peer link interface resulting in the MAC address changing between the MLAG bond and the peer link.
To work around this issue, disable MAC learning on QinQ VLANs by adding bridge-learning off to the VLAN stanza in the etc/network/interfaces file.
3.7.9-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2543937
An interface alias configured outside FRR using iproute2 is imported into the FRR running configuration and overrides the internal description. After an FRR reload, this causes FRR to delete the interface alias in an inefficient way. Depending on how many interfaces with aliases you have configured, this can cause a FRR reload to time out.
To work around this issue, remove the interface alias description from iproute2.

NCLU does not allow you to configure OSPF NSSAs. For example:

cumulus@switch:~$ net add ospf area 0.0.0.1 nssa
ERROR: Command not found.

On the EdgeCore AS4610 switch, the ping command fails unless you run the command with sudo.
To work around this issue, run the following commands:

cumulus@switch:~$ sudo setcap cap_net_raw+ep /usr/share/mgmt-vrf/bin/ping
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo setcap cap_net_raw+ep /usr/share/mgmt-vrf/bin/ping6

Run the following command to verify the workaround:
 
cumulus@switch:~$ getcap /usr/share/mgmt-vrf/bin/ping*

You should see the following output:
 
/usr/share/mgmt-vrf/bin/ping = cap_net_raw+ep
/usr/share/mgmt-vrf/bin/ping6 = cap_net_raw+ep

You cannot specify a source and destination MAC address in an ERSPAN ebtables rule. For example, the following rule does not work:

-A FORWARD -i swp5 -s 00:25:90:b2:bd:9d -d 50:6b:4b:96:c4:04 -j erspan –src-ip 100.1.1.2 –dst-ip 100.1.1.1 –ttl 64

On the Mellanox Spectrum-2 switch, the time required to establish a link (from the time a link is set to admin up until the link becomes operationally up) can take up to 15 seconds on 40G interfaces and up to 30 seconds on 100G interfaces.
To work around this issue, wait up to 15 seconds on 40G interfaces and 30 seconds on 100G interfaces for the link to establish.

In some cases, the switchd service might warn of excessive MAC moves from one switch port to itself (for example, from swp18 to swp18).
3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2543164
The MTU of an SVI cannot be higher than the MTU on the bridge. Changing the MTU on the SVI with NCLU does not update the bridge MTU. The net commit command succeeds even though the MTU is not changed as expected.
To work around this issue, change the MTU on all SVIs and the bridge manually in the /etc/network/interfaces file, then apply the change with the ifreload -a command.
3.7.7-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2543096
When an SVI with a virtual MAC is configured with a layer 2 VNI in an EVPN environment, if you replace the /etc/network/interfaces file with a different file that does not have the SVI and layer 2 VNI configuration, the original virtual MAC is not populated through the EVPN route until FRR is restarted.

On the Broadcom Maverick switch with a QinQ configuration, the packets coming into the CPU might be tagged incorrectly; for example, 802.1ad + 802.1q tags are expected in the packets but the packets have 802.1q + 802.1q tags.
To work around this issue, configure the bridge with bridge-vlan-protocol 802.1ad:

cumulus@switch:~$ net add bridge mybridge vlan-protocol 802.1ad
3.7.6-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5

2540352
When you use NCLU to configure a route map, the parser allows for glob matching of interfaces for a match interface condition when there can only be a single interface matched. The proper syntax is to use multiple route map clauses, each matching a single interface, instead of a single clause matching multiple interfaces.
For example, this command is incorrect:
 
net add routing route-map Proxy-ARP permit 25 match interface swp9-10

These commands are correct:
 
net add routing route-map Proxy-ARP permit 25 match interface swp9
net add routing route-map Proxy-ARP permit 30 match interface swp10

3.7.2-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5

On the Broadcom switch, when moving configuration from bridged to routed (or toggling from routed to bridged to routed), some traffic is not seen by the kernel. This can cause BGP to not establish on a transit node.
3.7.3-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2540042
When you try to configure the VRRP priority and advertisement-interval with NCLU on a traditional mode bridge, the net commit command fails.
To work around this issue, use the vtysh command (inside FRR) to change the VRRP priority or advertisement-interval on traditional bridges. For example:
 
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo vtysh
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface br0.100
switch(config-if)# vrrp 1 priority 110
switch(config-if)# vrrp 1 advertisement-interval

3.7.4-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2540041
On SVIs in a VLAN-aware bridge, you cannot change the VRRP priority with NCLU.
To work around this issue, run the vtysh command inside FRR to change the default priority. For example:
 
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo vtysh
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface vlan100
switch(config-if)# vrrp 1 priority 110
switch(config-if)# end
switch# write memory
switch# exit

Cumulus Linux uses VRRPv3 as the default version, and enables both preempt and accept mode by default. You cannot change these default values with NCLU. To work around this issue, run the vtysh commands (inside FRR) to change the default values. For example:
 
cumulus@switch:~$ sudo vtysh
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface swp4
switch(config-if)# vrrp 1 version 2
switch(config-if)# no vrrp 1 preempt

2539124
The net add interface ptm-enable command adds no ptm-enable for that interface in the frr.conf file.
Running the net add or the net del command does not remove no ptm-enable from the frr.conf file. You have to remove it manually using vtysh.
3.7.2-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5

NCLU automatically adds the VLAN ID (for the layer 3 VNI/SVI) to the bridge when you run net add vxlan bridge access . This configuration breaks network connectivity in an EVPN symmetric routing configuration using MLAG.
To restore connectivity, remove the VLAN ID from the bridge.
3.7.2-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5

When you configure a control plane ACL to define permit and deny rules destined to the local switch, NCLU programs the control plane ACL rules into the FORWARD chain.
3.7.2-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2538562
On an RMP/1G-T switch, when you remove link-speed 100 with the NCLU command or by editing the etc/network/interfaces file to revert the 100M interface to the default (1G auto), the interface fails to recover and does not come back up.
After you remove the link-speed, ethtool shows the advertised link modes as not reported and Speed/Duplex as unknown.
To work around this issue and bring the interface back up, either restart switchd or use ethtool to configure the speed, advertised, duplex or MDI-X settings.
Note: The advertised link mode gets set incorrectly if you include 1000baseT/Half. The port will come up successfully at 1G.
3.7.2-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5

If you use NCLU to create an iBGP peering across the peer link, running the net add bgp l2vpn evpn neighbor peerlink.4094 activate command creates a new eBGP neighborship when one has already been configured for iBGP. This is unexpected; the existing iBGP configuration is valid. 3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5

There is a limitation on the number of SVI interfaces you can specify as DHCP relay interfaces in the /etc/default/isc-dhcp-relay file. For example, 1500 SVI interfaces causes the dhcrelay service to exit without a core file and logs similar to the following are generated for the interfaces:
 
2018-11-10T23:35:30.992370-08:00 Dev dhcrelay: Listening on LPF/vlan.101/a0:00:00:00:00:51

The BFD packet redirection logic used by OVSDB server high availability mode redirects BUM packets across the peer link. The iptables rule for redirection does differentiate between BFD and non-BFD VXLAN inner packets because the service node sends all frames with its own IP address as the tunnel source IP address. The VXLAN encapsulated BUM packets do not get forwarded to the CPU and do not go through the iptable redirection rule; only VXLAN encapsulated BFD packets get forwarded to the CPU due to the inner MAC DA lookup in hardware.

For an unresolved address, the IPROUTER default policer rule has been modified to not match on packets exiting a TUNNEL and headed to the CPU to resolve the address via ARP. As a result, the following default rule no longer matches TUNNEL ingress packets.

IPROUTER -j POLICE –set-mode pkt –set-rate 400 –set-burst 100

These packets are now policed by catch all rules.
To work around this issue, the VPORT value on a TRIDENT switch must be changed from binary 011 to 100.

On the EdgeCore AS7712 (Tomahawk) switch running in atomic mode, when a layer 3 ECMP path is brought down, traffic traversing the path stops working for about four seconds. When the switch is changed to non-atomic mode, the delay is less than one second. This issue is seen across OSPF and static ECMP routes. 4.0.0-4.4.5
2536179
On switches with the Trident 2+ ASIC, counters associated with VLANs and VRFs are not working. 3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2535986
At a high CPU transmit traffic rate (for example, if there is unexpected CPU generated flooding or replication in software), when the ASIC packet driver cannot keep up with the transmit rate because there are no free DMA buffers, it can back pressure by suspending the switch port transmit queues. This can fill up the application socket buffers resulting in No buffer space available error messages on protocol sockets.
When the driver recovers, it automatically resumes the transmit queues. In most cases these error messages are transient. In rare cases, the hardware queues might get stuck, which you can recover with a switchd restart.
3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2535965
On the Trident3 switch, static PIM with IIF based on a layer 2 bridge does not work reliably. PIM Join via signaling is required for IPMC to work properly.
To work around this issue, use dynamic signaling (joins) to manage IP multicast traffic.
3.7.0-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2535723
The source address of the ICMPv6 time exceeded message (traceroute hop) is sourced from the wrong VRF when the traceroute target resides on the same switch but in a different VRF. 4.0.0-4.4.5
2535706
On the Mellanox switch, GRE tunneling does not work if the tunnel source is configured on an SVI interface. If the tunnel source is configured on a physical switch port, then tunneling works as expected. 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.14-3.7.16
2535605
FRR does not add BGP ttl-security to either the running configuration or to the /etc/frr/frr.conf file when configured on a peer group instead of a specific neighbor.
To work around this issue, add ttl-security to individual neighbors instead of the peer group.
4.0.0-4.4.5
2535209
The net show lldp command sometimes shows the port description in the Remote Port field. The net show interface command shows the correct value in the Remote Host field.
To work around this issue, use net show interface command for LLDP output when connected to Cisco equipment.
3.7.5-3.7.10, 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.11-3.7.16
2534977
On the Mellanox switch, the destination MAC address of ERSPAN GRE packets is set to all zeros; therefore, the first transit switch might drop packets. 4.0.0-4.4.5 3.7.14-3.7.16
2534734
Span rules matching the out-interface as a bond do not mirror packets. 4.0.0-4.4.5
2533691
If you configure a VLAN under a VLAN-aware bridge and create a subinterface of the same VLAN on one of the bridge ports, the bridge and interface compete for the same VLAN and if the interface is flapped, it stops working. Correcting the configuration and running the ifreload command does not resolve the conflict.
To work around this issue, correct the bridge VIDs and restart switchd or delete the subinterface.
3.7.12-3.7.16, 4.0.0-4.4.5
2533625
PIM and MSDP entries are set to the internal COS value of 6 so they are grouped together with the bulk traffic priority group in the default traffic.conf file. However, PIM, IGMP, and MSDP are considered control-plane and should be set to the internal COS value of 7. 4.0.0-4.4.5
2533337
When you use NCLU to bring a bond admin down (net add bond link down), the bond interface goes into admin down state but the switch ports enslaved to the bond remain UP. If you are using bond-lacp-bypass-allow or balance-xor mode, the host might continue to send traffic. This traffic will be dropped because although the bond slaves are UP, they are not members of the bridge.
To work around this issue, use the sudo ifdown command.
4.0.0-4.4.5
2531273
In certain cases, a peer device sends an ARP request from a source IP address that is not on the connected subnet and the switch creates a STALE neighbor entry. Eventually, the switch attempts to keep the entry fresh and sends ARP requests to the host. If the host responds, the switch has REACHABLE neighbor entries for hosts that are not on the connected subnet.
To work around this issue, change the value of arp_ignore to 2. See [Address Resolution Protocol in the Cumulus Linux user guide|https://docs.cumulusnetworks.com/cumulus-linux/Layer-3/Address-Resolution-Protocol-ARP/] for more information.

When a Trident3 switch receives packets containing an IP checksum value that is not compliant with RFC 1624, the TTL is decremented after a routing operation but the checksum is not recalculated. This results in the IP checksum value being invalid as the packet leaves the switch. 3.7.10-3.7.11, 4.0.0-4.0.1
2547443
On the Dell N3248PXE-ON switch, 25G SFP ports do not work in 10G mode. 3.7.11-4.0.1
2547360
The Mellanox SN3700C switch experiences a kernel memory leak in the bridge IPv4 multicast receive function. When IGMP snooping is disabled, received IGMP packets are cloned and the clone is not freed, causing a memory leak.
Because this memory leak is in the kernel, you cannot clear it by restarting a service; you must reboot the switch to clear the allocated memory.

Broadcom Field Alert - SID - MMU 2B Errors
A few of the MMU memories on Broadcom switches are grouped together with single parity control. During SER correction when a parity error occurs on one of those groups, other memory in that group might also report a SER error. This occurs when the memory is accessed either by a packet hit or through a schan operation. This issue can cause SER errors in other memory and cause traffic mis-forwarding or a packet drop.

3.7.10-3.7.11, 4.0.0-4.0.1
2546140
CPU usage might be higher than normal if you have a high number of interfaces x VLANs and lldpd is active. This issue is introduced with code changes in Cumulus Linux 3.7.11, where VLAN information is now available for LLDP to advertise to neighbors ([https://docs.cumulusnetworks.com/version/cumulus-linux-37/Layer-2/Link-Layer-Discovery-Protocol/#vlan-dot1-tlv]). You might see high CPU usage even if VLAN (dot1) TLV configuration is disabled.
To check if lldpd is the heavy CPU resource user, run the following command:

cumulus@switch:~$ ps -eo user,pid,ppid,cmd,%mem,%cpu –sort=-%cpu | head

Alternatively, check for messages in the /var/log/syslog directory similar to:

2020-02-20T15:02:12.137857-05:00 leaf01 sysmonitor: High CPU use: 87%
2020-02-20T15:02:12.482398-05:00 leaf01 sysmonitor: PID USER PR VIRT RES %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
2020-02-20T15:02:12.483112-05:00 leaf01 sysmonitor: 1570 _lldpd 20 73244 13800 76.6 0.3 4:43.06 lldpd

Note: The exact amount of CPU usage varies in each network based on a number of factors; however, it is unusual for lldpd to consume more than 30% CPU for an extended period of time.
To work around this issue, you can do one of the following:
* If the large number of VLANs is not absolutely necessary, manually prune the VLAN allowed list (if you use the range 1-2999, modify the bridge-vids list to include the VLANs being used).
* Stop the lldpd service. (This approach might be undesirable if the switch is providing services that rely on LLDP such as Voice VLAN.) To stop the lldpd service (runtime setting), run the sudo systemctl stop lldpd.service command. To disable the lldpd service upon boot, run sudo systemctl disable lldpd.service.
3.7.11-3.7.12, 4.0.0-4.0.1

Trident2+ switches do not enable DFE for 10G and 4x10G DACs. As a result, longer or marginal 10G DACs might not link up reliably.
To work around this issue, run the following command after a reboot.
On the SFP side:

echo CR > /cumulus/switchd/config/interface/swp${port}/interface_mode ; done

On the QSFP side:

echo CR > /cumulus/switchd/config/interface/swp${port}/interface_mode ; done

Cumulus Linux poed generates excessive debug log entries. These will be reduced in a future release. 3.7.3-3.7.10, 4.0.0-4.0.1
2544200
Traffic sent to the SVI IP address of a switch might be lost if all of the following conditions are met:
* The switch is a member of an MLAG pair
* The traffic is sourced from a layer 2 adjacent host
* The host is located within a VRF of the MLAG pair
* The traffic from the source crosses the peer link
* VXLAN is configured on the MLAG pair

This issue does not impact transit traffic or traffic that does not meet all of the described conditions.
To workaround this issue, restart switchd.

On the Mellanox switch, UFT profiles are unable to support the documented capacity for routes to addresses that are more than 64 bits in length. The listed capacities assume 64-bit destination IP addresses. 3.7.8-3.7.10, 4.0.0-4.0.1

On switches with the Spectrum ASIC, the underlay hashes VXLAN packets for a given overlay flow randomly.
To work around this issue, configure the ECMP hash seed to the same value on the EVPN egress leaf switches.

After you issue the NCLU net del bgp vrf autonomous-system command and commit the change, Cumulus Linux does not remove the configuration from the /etc/frr/frr.conf file or the net show config commands.

On the Broadcom Trident 3 switch, VXLAN encapsulated packets are dropped on the ingress port (tagged layer 2 port) during transit forwarding (the local switch does not terminate the VXLAN tunnel). An example of where this two-layer VXLAN inside VXLAN encapsulation might occur:
- VXLAN tunnel (#1) between two servers (different racks) to provide layer 2 extension for containers or VM hosts.
- VXLAN tunnel (#2) between the TOR switch in rack 1 to the TOR switch located in the remote rack.

To work around this issue, either:
- Configure the edge port (facing the servers) to be an access port (instead of a trunk/tagged port)
- Change the destination port from 4789 to something else (VXLAN tunnel terminated by the servers)

If the BMC operating system fails to respond to IPMI, you see a traceback in bmcd and all the sensors might report ABSENT devices in smonctl.
To work around this issue, power cycle the switch.

In EVPN symmetric or centralized configurations with BGP peering over a peer link, VXLAN routed packets transiting an MLAG peer are dropped until the clagd init-delay timer expires during the bring-up sequence following a reboot.
The problem is caused by a race condition when programming the anycast IP address (used to terminate VXLAN tunnels), where the hardware is programmed before the software by clagd.
To work around this issue, configure the BGP path across the peer link to be less preferred. The example below uses AS path prepending and the MLAG switches are iBGP neighbors. However, other BGP configurations achieve the same result.
In the /etc/frr/frr.conf file, make a new AS path access list and route map to apply BGP pre-pending of the local ASN one or more times. For example:
 
ip as-path access-list MY_ASN permit ^$

route-map peerlink-add-asn permit 10
match as-path MY_ASN
set as-path prepend 4200000101
route-map peerlink-add-asn permit 20

When you try to change the NTP time zone with the NCLU net add time zone command or by editing the /etc/timezone file manually, the configuration does not take effect.
To work around this issue, change the time zone with the sudo timedatectl set-timezone command. For example:

cumulus@switch:~$ sudo timedatectl set-timezone US/Eastern

On the Broadcom switch, when a link-local multicast frame is received on an access port with a VNI in the bridge, two copies of the packet are sent across the VNI to remote VTEPs and the receiving hosts observe duplicate packets.

CVE-2018-5391 (FragmentSmack) is a network vulnerability where an attacker can trigger time and calculation expensive fragment reassembly with specially crafted packets, leading to a denial of service. On a Cumulus Linux switch, the impact is limited to control plane and management plane traffic. Any control plane traffic coming in the front panel ports will be limited by existing policer ACLs.
To work around this issue, create a file called /etc/sysctl.d/ip.conf and add these settings:

net.ipv4.ipfrag_low_thresh = 196608
net.ipv6.ip6frag_low_thresh = 196608
net.ipv4.ipfrag_high_thresh = 262144
net.ipv6.ip6frag_high_thresh = 262144

On the Broadcom switch with the Trident3 ASIC, the ECN-CE bit is set by default on transit traffic. This might result in hosts adjusting traffic behavior if they are configured for the ECN feature.
In Cumulus Linux 3.7.11, the default behavior changed; the ECN-CE bit is no longer set by default on transit traffic.

On a Trident3 switch, IGMP packets are not policed by the police rule in the 00control ACL file. The packets are policed by the catchall policer in the 99control ACL file instead.
-A $INGRESS_CHAIN -p ipv4 -d 01:00:5e:00:00:00/ff:ff:ff:80:00:00 -j police –set-mode pkt –set-rate 100 –set-burst 100
To work around this issue, let the CPU bound IGMP packet hit the following rule and change the policer rate to a desired value for IGMP packets:
-A $INGRESS_CHAIN -p ipv4 -d 01:00:5e:00:00:00/ff:ff:ff:80:00:00 -j police –set-mode pkt –set-rate 100 –set-burst 100
Typically, the destination MAC address 01:00:5e:xx:xx:xx is used only for PIM/IGMP control and data stream packets. However, this workaround cannot handle data stream multicast packets that are not TCP/UDP; this is not typically done.

On the Mellanox SN-2100 switch, unicast packets are counted in multicast queue counters.
