Zefir Kurtisi reported kernel panic with an openwrt specific patch. However, it turns out that mainline has a similar bug waiting to happen. Once NF_HOOK() returns the skb is in undefined state and must not be used. Moreover, the okfn must consume the skb to support async processing (NF_QUEUE). Current okfn in this spot doesn't consume it and caller assumes that NF_HOOK return value tells us if skb was freed or not, but thats wrong.
That's.
It "works" because no in-tree user registers a NFPROTO_BRIDGE hook at LOCAL_IN that returns STOLEN or NF_QUEUE verdicts. Once we add NF_QUEUE support for nftables bridge this will break -- NF_QUEUE holds the skb for async processing, caller will erronoulsy
Erroneously.
return RX_HANDLER_PASS and on reinject netfilter will access free'd skb. Fix this by pushing skb up the stack in the okfn instead. NB: It also seems dubious to use LOCAL_IN while bypassing PRE_ROUTING completely in this case but this is how its been forever so it seems preferable to not change this.
