From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Eric Dumazet Subject: [PATCH 1/2] netfilter: xtables: fix reentrancy Date: Fri, 18 Mar 2011 18:05:21 +0100 Message-ID: <1300467921.2888.157.camel@edumazet-laptop> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Cc: Netfilter Development Mailinglist , netdev , Jan Engelhardt To: Patrick McHardy , David Miller Return-path: Sender: netfilter-devel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-Id: netdev.vger.kernel.org commit f3c5c1bfd4308 (make ip_tables reentrant) introduced a race in handling the stackptr restore, at the end of ipt_do_table() We should do it before the call to xt_info_rdunlock_bh(), or we allow cpu preemption and another cpu overwrites stackptr of original one. A second fix is to change the underflow test to check the origptr value instead of 0 to detect underflow, or else we allow a jump from different hooks.
