Описание
A vulnerability was identified in the Linux kernel’s netfilter nf_tables subsystem that could lead to wild memory access under specific conditions. When deleting elements from an anonymous set already removed in the same transaction during nftables operations, internal state handling did not properly deactivate the set, leading to a potential write of invalid memory. On systems with Kernel Address Sanitizer (KASAN) enabled or during certain transaction flows, this flaw can result in a write at an invalid address, causing system instability.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nf_tables: deactivate anonymous set from preparation phase [ backport for 4.14 of c1592a89942e9678f7d9c8030efa777c0d57edab ] Toggle deleted anonymous sets as inactive in the next generation, so users cannot perform any update on it. Clear the generation bitmask in case the transaction is aborted. The following KASAN splat shows a set element deletion for a bound anonymous set that has been already removed in the same transaction.
