| Name | CVE-2022-48974 |
| Description | In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: conntrack: fix using __this_cpu_add in preemptible
Currently in nf_conntrack_hash_check_insert(), when it fails in
nf_ct_ext_valid_pre/post(), NF_CT_STAT_INC() will be called in the
preemptible context, a call trace can be triggered:
BUG: using __this_cpu_add() in preemptible [00000000] code: conntrack/1636
caller is nf_conntrack_hash_check_insert+0x45/0x430 [nf_conntrack]
Call Trace:

This patch is to fix it by changing to use NF_CT_STAT_INC_ATOMIC() for
nf_ct_ext_valid_pre/post() check in nf_conntrack_hash_check_insert(),
as well as nf_ct_ext_valid_post() in __nf_conntrack_confirm().
Note that nf_ct_ext_valid_pre() check in __nf_conntrack_confirm() is
safe to use NF_CT_STAT_INC(), as it's under local_bh_disable(). |
