From: Gao Feng <fgao@xxxxxxxxxx> When memory is exhausted, nfct_seqadj_ext_add may fail to add the seqadj extension. But the function nf_ct_seqadj_init doesn't check if get valid seqadj pointer by the nfct_seqadj. Now drop the packet directly when fail to add seqadj extension to avoid dereference NULL pointer in nf_ct_seqadj_init. Signed-off-by: Gao Feng <fgao@xxxxxxxxxx> --- v5: Return NF_ACCEPT instead of NF_DROP when nfct_seqadj_ext_add failed in nf_nat_setup_info v4: Drop the packet directly when fail to add seqadj extension; v3: Remove the warning log when seqadj is null; v2: Remove the unnessary seqadj check in nf_ct_seq_adjust v1: Initial patch net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c | 6 +++++- net/netfilter/nf_nat_core.c | 3 ++- 2 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c b/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c index dd2c43a..dfa76ce 100644 --- a/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c +++ b/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c @@ -1036,7 +1036,11 @@ init_conntrack(struct net *net, struct nf_conn *tmpl, return (struct nf_conntrack_tuple_hash *)ct; if (tmpl && nfct_synproxy(tmpl)) { - nfct_seqadj_ext_add(ct); + if (!nfct_seqadj_ext_add(ct)) { + nf_conntrack_free(ct); + pr_debug("Can't add seqadj extension\n"); + return NULL; + } nfct_synproxy_ext_add(ct); } diff --git a/net/netfilter/nf_nat_core.c b/net/netfilter/nf_nat_core.c index de31818..f8b916a 100644 --- a/net/netfilter/nf_nat_core.c +++ b/net/netfilter/nf_nat_core.c @@ -441,7 +441,8 @@ nf_nat_setup_info(struct nf_conn *ct, ct->status |= IPS_DST_NAT; if (nfct_help(ct)) - nfct_seqadj_ext_add(ct); + if (!nfct_seqadj_ext_add(ct)) + return NF_ACCEPT; } if (maniptype == NF_NAT_MANIP_SRC) { -- 1.9.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
