Subject: [PATCH net 10/10] netfilter: nf_tables: reject immediate NF_QUEUE verdict
Date: Wed,  1 Apr 2026 12:36:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260401103646.1015423-11-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260401103646.1015423-1-pablo@netfilter.org>

nft_queue is always used from userspace nftables to deliver the NF_QUEUE
verdict. Immediately emitting an NF_QUEUE verdict is never used by the
userspace nft tools, so reject immediate NF_QUEUE verdicts.

The arp family does not provide queue support, but such an immediate
verdict is still reachable. Globally reject NF_QUEUE immediate verdicts
to address this issue.

Fixes: f342de4e2f33 ("netfilter: nf_tables: reject QUEUE/DROP verdict parameters")
