[PATCH 5.9 025/255] netfilter: nf_tables: missing validation from the abort path

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Nov 17 2020 - 08:32:11 EST


From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit c0391b6ab810381df632677a1dcbbbbd63d05b6d ]

If userspace does not include the trailing end of batch message, then
nfnetlink aborts the transaction. This allows to check that ruleset
updates trigger no errors.

After this patch, invoking this command from the prerouting chain:

# nft -c add rule x y fib saddr . oif type local

fails since oif is not supported there.

This patch fixes the lack of rule validation from the abort/check path
to catch configuration errors such as the one above.

Fixes: a654de8fdc18 ("netfilter: nf_tables: fix chain dependency validation")
