Subject: [PATCH nf,v2 1/3] netfilter: nf_tables: fix set->nelems counting with no NLM_F_EXCL
Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2017 19:42:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1485283379-9281-1-git-send-email-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)

If the element exists and no NLM_F_EXCL is specified, do not bump
set->nelems, otherwise we leak one set element slot. This problem
amplifies if the set is full since the abort path always decrements the
counter for the -ENFILE case too, giving one spare extra slot.

Fix this by moving set->nelems update to nft_add_set_elem() after
successful element insertion. Moreover, remove the element if the set is
full so there is no need to rely on the abort path to undo things
anymore.

Fixes: c016c7e45ddf ("netfilter: nf_tables: honor NLM_F_EXCL flag in set element insertion")

v2: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/716751/ attacks the problem from the
    wrong angle since this doesn't catch more corner cases that trigger bugs.
    This patch obsoletes this previous try.
