Netfilter fixes for net
The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for net:
1) Harden set element field checks to avoid out-of-bound memory access,
this patch also fixes the type of issue described in 7e6bc1f6ca
("netfilter: nf_tables: stricter validation of element data") in a
broader way.
2) Patches to restrict the chain, set, and rule id lookup in the
transaction to the corresponding top-level table, patches from
Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo.
3) Fix incorrect comment in ip6t_LOG.h
4) nft_data_init() performs upfront validation of the expected data.
struct nft_data_desc is used to describe the expected data to be
received from userspace. The .size field represents the maximum size
that can be stored, for bound checks. Then, .len is an input/output field
which stores the expected length as input (this is optional, to restrict
the checks), as output it stores the real length received from userspace
(if it was not specified as input). This patch comes in response to
7e6bc1f6ca ("netfilter: nf_tables: stricter validation of element data")
to address this type of issue in a more generic way by avoid opencoded
data validation. Next patch requires this as a dependency.
5) Disallow jump to implicit chain from set element, this configuration
is invalid. Only allow jump to chain via immediate expression is
supported at this stage.
6) Fix possible null-pointer derefence in the error path of table updates,
if memory allocation of the transaction fails. From Florian Westphal.
