[PATCH nf] netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: fix memory leak when attach expectation successfully

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

 



From: Liping Zhang <liping.zhang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

User can use NFQA_EXP to attach expectations to conntracks, but we
forget to put back nf_conntrack_expect when it is inserted successfully,
i.e. in this normal case, expect's use refcnt will be 3. So even we
unlink it and put it back later, the use refcnt is still 1, then the
memory will be leaked forever.
