kern/52470: ipf fails to return-icmp on a link-local address
>Number: 52470

>Confidential: no
>Severity: serious
>Priority: medium

>Description:
If a block rule with a "return-icmp" qualifier matches on a link-local address, no ICMP packet is sent. The problem is that ipf_send_icmp_err() calls ipf_ifpaddr() to find an address of the interface in question, but that routine discards link local addresses.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install a block rule with "return-icmp" and make it match a packet addressed to a link-local address. Observe no ICMP being sent.
>Fix:
I guess the best fix is to simply use the destination address instead if it is link local, i.e. treat the rule as if return-icmp-as-dest was given in this case.
Note you will also need the fix from kern/52469 or the ICMP packet will fail to get properly routed.
