This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled netfilter: nf_tables: validate NFTA_SET_ELEM_OBJREF based on NFT_SET_OBJECT flag to the 4.19-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: netfilter-nf_tables-validate-nfta_set_elem_objref-ba.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.19 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 5fc53006c93357c0d1ecfda17fd1b983e12d576b Author: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue May 16 17:06:12 2023 +0200 netfilter: nf_tables: validate NFTA_SET_ELEM_OBJREF based on NFT_SET_OBJECT flag [ 5a2f3dc31811e93be15522d9eb13ed61460b76c8 ] If the NFTA_SET_ELEM_OBJREF netlink attribute is present and NFT_SET_OBJECT flag is set on, report EINVAL. Move existing sanity check earlier to validate that NFT_SET_OBJECT requires NFTA_SET_ELEM_OBJREF.
