[PATCH 1/2] libnfntl: Fix segfault due to invalid free of rule user data

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

 



If the user allocates a nftnl_udata_buf and then passes the TLV data to
nftnl_rule_set_data, the pointer stored in rule.user.data is not the begining of
the allocated block. In this situation, if it calls to nftnl_rule_free, it tries
to free this pointer and segfault is thrown.
