[PATCH] netfilter: fix percpu counter block leak on error path when creating new netns

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

 



Here is the stack where we allocate percpu counter block:

  +-< __alloc_percpu
    +-< xt_percpu_counter_alloc
      +-< find_check_entry # {arp,ip,ip6}_tables.c
        +-< translate_table

And it can be leaked on this code path:

  +-> ip6t_register_table
    +-> translate_table # allocates percpu counter block
    +-> xt_register_table # fails

there is no freeing of the counter block on xt_register_table fail.
Note: xt_percpu_counter_free should be called to free it like we do in
do_replace through cleanup_entry helper (or in __ip6t_unregister_table).

Probability of hitting this error path is low AFAICS (xt_register_table
can only return ENOMEM here, as it is not replacing anything, as we are
creating new netns, and it is hard to imagine that all previous
allocations succeeded and after that one in xt_register_table failed).
But it's worth fixing even the rare leak.
