Yes, this is one of the dirties parts of pf. The whole API to read and configure tables from the userland calls to be rewritten from scratch. Conversion from malloc to mallocarray really does nothing. Better just put a maximum value
cap.

I’m working on introducing limits there. Many GET/DELETE calls we can just limit to min(user_specified_size, kernel_size) for example. Some of the others, like ADDTABLES are only used by pfctl, which only ever adds one table at a time. An arbitrary limit of 65k should be fine there.

ADDADDRS is one of the hard ones, because there’s no obvious limit to how many addresses can be added to a table. We may end up with an annoying arbitrary limit there.

I’m not done auditing all of them, but hopefully I’ll have something soon-ish.

And yes, I’m aware that the NULL checks no longer make sense. I’ll remove them as part of this work. They’re useless but not harmful at the moment.

Regards,
Kristof
