Quoting Andrey Vagin:
When a conntrack is created by kernel, it is initialized (sets
IPS_{DST,SRC}_NAT_DONE_BIT bits in nf_nat_setup_info) and only then it
is added in hashes (__nf_conntrack_hash_insert), so one conntract
can't be initialized from a few threads concurrently.
ctnetlink can add an uninitialized conntrack (w/o
IPS_{DST,SRC}_NAT_DONE_BIT) in hashes, then a few threads can look up
this conntrack and start initialize it concurrently. It's dangerous,
because BUG can be triggered from nf_nat_setup_info.
Fix this race by always setting up nat, even if no CTA_NAT_ attribute
was requested before inserting the ct into the hash table. In absence
of CTA_NAT_ attribute, a null binding is created.
This alters current behaviour: Before this patch, the first packet
matching the newly injected conntrack would be run through the nat
table since nf_nat_initialized() returns false. IOW, this forces
ctnetlink users to specify the desired nat transformation on ct
creation time.
Thanks for Florian Westphal, this patch is based on his original
patch to address this problem, including this patch description.
