[PATCH 5.13 522/800] netfilter: nf_tables: memleak in hw offload abort path

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jul 12 2021 - 04:50:49 EST


From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 3c5e44622011b9ea21bd425875dcccfc9a158f5f ]

Release flow from the abort path, this is easy to reproduce since
b72920f6e4a9 ("netfilter: nftables: counter hardware offload support").
If the preparation phase fails, then the abort path is exercised without
releasing the flow rule object.

Remove flow rule release from the offload commit path, otherwise error
from the offload commit phase might trigger a double-free due to the
execution of the abort_offload -> abort. After this patch, the abort
path takes care of releasing the flow rule.

This fix also needs to move the nft_flow_rule_create() call before the
transaction object is added otherwise the abort path might find a NULL
pointer to the flow rule object for the NFT_CHAIN_HW_OFFLOAD case.

While at it, rename BASIC-like goto tags to slightly more meaningful
names rather than adding a new "err3" tag.
