| Subject: CVE-2024-26925: netfilter: nf_tables: release mutex after nft_gc_seq_end from abort path |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| netfilter: nf_tables: release mutex after nft_gc_seq_end from abort path |
| |
| The commit mutex should not be released during the critical section |
| between nft_gc_seq_begin() and nft_gc_seq_end(), otherwise, async GC |
| worker could collect expired objects and get the released commit lock |
| within the same GC sequence. |
| |
| nf_tables_module_autoload() temporarily releases the mutex to load |
| module dependencies, then it goes back to replay the transaction again. |
| Move it at the end of the abort phase after nft_gc_seq_end() is called. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-26925 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
