I believe that "hook->num" can be up to UINT_MAX so the shift has to be unsigned or shifting more than 31 is undefined. It's possible that this leads to array overflow in nf_tables_addchain(): ops->hook = hook.type->hooks[ops->hooknum]; Fixes: fe19c04ca137 ("netfilter: nf_tables: remove nhooks field from struct nft_af_info") Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> --- net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c b/net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c index ef7772e976cc..b6e48fe7c776 100644 --- a/net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c +++ b/net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c @@ -1545,7 +1545,7 @@ static int nft_chain_parse_hook(struct net *net, if (IS_ERR(type)) return PTR_ERR(type); } - if (!(type->hook_mask & (1 << hook->num))) + if (!(type->hook_mask & (1U << hook->num))) return -EOPNOTSUPP; if (type->type == NFT_CHAIN_T_NAT && -- 2.17.1
