[PATCH 4.19 02/57] netfilter: clear skb->next in NF_HOOK_LIST()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Dec 01 2020 - 04:29:38 EST



From: Cong Wang <cong.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

NF_HOOK_LIST() uses list_del() to remove skb from the linked list,
however, it is not sufficient as skb->next still points to other
skb. We should just call skb_list_del_init() to clear skb->next,
like the rest places which using skb list.

This has been fixed in upstream by commit ca58fbe06c54
("netfilter: add and use nf_hook_slow_list()").

Fixes: 9f17dbf04ddf ("netfilter: fix use-after-free in NF_HOOK_LIST")
