Subject: [PATCH nf] netfilter: nf_tables: fix memory leak when more than 255 elements expired
Date: Tue, 19 Sep 2023 15:36:13 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230919133616.20436-1-fw@strlen.de> (raw)

When more than 255 elements expire we're supposed to switch to a new gc
container structure, but nft_trans_gc_space() always returns false in this
case because u8 type is too narrow for the boundary.

While at it, don't deref 'gc' after we've passed it to call_rcu.

Fixes: 5f68718b34a5 ("netfilter: nf_tables: GC transaction API to avoid race with control plane")
