Subject: [PATCH v2] netfilter: protect nft_ct_pcpu_template_refcnt with mutex
Date: Tue, 10 Aug 2021 15:59:20 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210810125920.23187-1-paskripkin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210810125523.15312-1-paskripkin@gmail.com>

Syzbot hit use-after-free in nf_tables_dump_sets. The problem was in
missing lock protection for nft_ct_pcpu_template_refcnt.

Before commit f102d66b335a ("netfilter: nf_tables: use dedicated
mutex to guard transactions") all transactions were serialized by global
mutex, but then global mutex was changed to local per netnamespace
commit_mutex.

This change causes use-after-free bug, when 2 netnamespaces concurently
changing nft_ct_pcpu_template_refcnt without proper locking. Fix it by
adding nft_ct_pcpu_mutex and protect all nft_ct_pcpu_template_refcnt
changes with it.

Fixes: f102d66b335a ("netfilter: nf_tables: use dedicated mutex to guard transactions")
