| Subject: CVE-2022-48643: netfilter: nf_tables: fix nft_counters_enabled underflow at nf_tables_addchain() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| netfilter: nf_tables: fix nft_counters_enabled underflow at nf_tables_addchain() |
| |
| syzbot is reporting underflow of nft_counters_enabled counter at |
| nf_tables_addchain() [1], for commit 43eb8949cfdffa76 ("netfilter: |
| nf_tables: do not leave chain stats enabled on error") missed that |
| nf_tables_chain_destroy() after nft_basechain_init() in the error path of |
| nf_tables_addchain() decrements the counter because nft_basechain_init() |
| makes nft_is_base_chain() return true by setting NFT_CHAIN_BASE flag. |
| |
| Increment the counter immediately after returning from |
| nft_basechain_init(). |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2022-48643 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: |
