[PATCH 02/18] netfilter: nft_ct: fix unconditional dump of 'dir' attr

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Arturo Borrero <arturo.borrero.glez@xxxxxxxxx>

We want to make sure that the information that we get from the kernel can
be reinjected without troubles. The kernel shouldn't return an attribute
that is not required, or even prohibited.

Dumping unconditionally NFTA_CT_DIRECTION could lead an application in
userspace to interpret that the attribute was originally set, while it
was not.
