Subject: [PATCH net-next 04/11] netfilter: x_physdev: reject empty or not-nul terminated device names
Date: Fri, 10 Apr 2026 13:23:45 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260410112352.23599-5-fw@strlen.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260410112352.23599-1-fw@strlen.de>
Reject names that lack a \0 character and reject the empty string as
well. iptables allows this but it fails to re-parse iptables-save output
that contain such rules.
Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>
