Subject: [PATCH net-next 4/7] netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: Initialize ctx to avoid memory allocation error
Date: Sun, 23 Mar 2025 11:09:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250323100922.59983-5-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250323100922.59983-1-pablo@netfilter.org>

From: Chenyuan Yang <chenyuan0y@gmail.com>

It is possible that ctx in nfqnl_build_packet_message() could be used
before it is properly initialize, which is only initialized
by nfqnl_get_sk_secctx().

This patch corrects this problem by initializing the lsmctx to a safe
value when it is declared.

This is similar to the commit 35fcac7a7c25
("audit: Initialize lsmctx to avoid memory allocation error").

Fixes: 2d470c778120 ("lsm: replace context+len with lsm_context")
