From 569ccae68b38654f04b6842b034aa33857f605fe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Westphal Date: Tue, 10 Apr 2018 09:30:27 +0200 Subject: netfilter: nf_tables: can't fail after linking rule into active rule list rules in nftables a free'd using kfree, but protected by rcu, i.e. we must wait for a grace period to elapse. Normal removal patch does this, but nf_tables_newrule() doesn't obey this rule during error handling. It calls nft_trans_rule_add() *after* linking rule, and, if that fails to allocate memory, it unlinks the rule and then kfree() it -- this is unsafe. Switch order -- first add rule to transaction list, THEN link it to public list. Note: nft_trans_rule_add() uses GFP_KERNEL; it will not fail so this is not a problem in practice (spotted only during code review).
