[PATCH nf] netfilter: nf_tables: fix memory leak during stateful obj update

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

 



stateful objects can be updated from the control plane.
The transaction logic allocates a temporary object for this purpose.

This object has to be released via nft_obj_destroy, not kfree, since
the ->init function was called and it can have side effects beyond
memory allocation.

Fixes: d62d0ba97b58 ("netfilter: nf_tables: Introduce stateful object update operation")
