Subject: [PATCH nft] evaluate: tolerate empty concatenation
Date: Mon, 24 Mar 2025 12:52:58 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250324115301.11579-1-fw@strlen.de> (raw)
Don't rely on a successful evaluation of set->key.
With this input, set->key fails validation but subsequent
element evaluation asserts because the context points at
the set key -- an empty concatenation.
Causes:
nft: src/evaluate.c:1681: expr_evaluate_concat: Assertion `!list_empty(&ctx->ectx.key->expressions)' failed.
After patch:
internal:0:0-0: Error: unqualified type specified in set definition. Try "typeof expression" instead of "type datatype".
internal:0:0-0: Error: Could not parse symbolic invalid expression
