Subject: [PATCH net-next 07/15] netfilter: synproxy: protect nf_ct_seqadj_init() with conntrack lock
Date: Sun,  7 Jun 2026 11:49:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260607094954.48892-8-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260607094954.48892-1-pablo@netfilter.org>

From: Fernando Fernandez Mancera <fmancera@suse.de>

nf_ct_seqadj_init() is called without holding the ct lock. This can race
with nf_ct_seq_adjust() when a connection is in CLOSE state due to an
RST or connection reopening. In addition for SYN_RECV state, concurrent
processing of packets can trigger nf_ct_seq_adjust() too. These
situations create a read/write data race.

As synproxy is the only user of nf_ct_seqadj_init() at the moment, fix
this by holding ct->lock inside nf_ct_seqadj_init() until all is done.

Fixes: 48b1de4c110a ("netfilter: add SYNPROXY core/target")
