n the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nf_tables: do not allow CHAIN_ID to refer to another table When doing lookups for chains on the same batch by using its ID, a chain from a different table can be used. If a rule is added to a table but refers to a chain in a different table, it will be linked to the chain in table2, but would have expressions referring to objects in table1. Then, when table1 is removed, the rule will not be removed as its linked to a chain in table2. When expressions in the rule are processed or removed, that will lead to a use-after-free. When looking for chains by ID, use the table that was used for the lookup by name, and only return chains belonging to that same table.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: netfilter: nf_tables: no permitir que CHAIN_ID haga referencia a otra tabla Al realizar búsquedas de cadenas en el mismo lote usando su ID, se puede usar una cadena de una tabla diferente. Si se agrega una regla a una tabla pero hace referencia a una cadena en una tabla diferente, se vinculará a la cadena en la tabla2, pero tendría expresiones que hacen referencia a objetos en la tabla1. Luego, cuando se elimina la tabla1, la regla no se eliminará ya que está vinculada a una cadena en la tabla2. Cuando se procesan o eliminan expresiones en la regla, eso conducirá a un Use-After-Free. Al buscar cadenas por ID, use la tabla que se usó para la búsqueda por nombre y solo devuelva las cadenas que pertenecen a esa misma tabla.
