[PATCH 4.19 183/213] netfilter: nf_tables: disable toggling dormant table state more than once

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

 



4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit c9bd26513b3a11b3adb3c2ed8a31a01a87173ff1 upstream.

nft -f -<<EOF
add table ip t
add table ip t { flags dormant; }
add chain ip t c { type filter hook input priority 0; }
add table ip t
EOF

Triggers a splat from nf core on next table delete because we lose
track of right hook register state:

WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 1597 at net/netfilter/core.c:501 __nf_unregister_net_hook
RIP: 0010:__nf_unregister_net_hook+0x41b/0x570
 nf_unregister_net_hook+0xb4/0xf0
 __nf_tables_unregister_hook+0x160/0x1d0
[..]

The above should have table in *active* state, but in fact no
hooks were registered.

Reject on/off/on games rather than attempting to fix this.
