net: fix UAF issue in nfqnl_nf_hook_drop() when ops_init() failed
[ Upstream commit d266935ac43d57586e311a087510fe6a084af742 ]
When the ops_init() interface is invoked to initialize the net, but
ops->init() fails, data is released. However, the ptr pointer in
net->gen is invalid. In this case, when nfqnl_nf_hook_drop() is invoked
to release the net, invalid address access occurs.
The process is as follows:
setup_net()
ops_init()
data = kzalloc(...) ---> alloc "data"
net_assign_generic() ---> assign "date" to ptr in net->gen
...
ops->init() ---> failed
...
kfree(data); ---> ptr in net->gen is invalid
...
ops_exit_list()
...
nfqnl_nf_hook_drop()
*q = nfnl_queue_pernet(net) ---> q is invalid
The following is the Call Trace information:
