stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.215 commit 940d41caa71f0d3a52df2fde5fada524a993e331 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I9QG2A CVE: CVE-2024-35898 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- commit 24225011d81b471acc0e1e315b7d9905459a6304 upstream. nft_unregister_flowtable_type() within nf_flow_inet_module_exit() can concurrent with __nft_flowtable_type_get() within nf_tables_newflowtable(). And thhere is not any protection when iterate over nf_tables_flowtables list in __nft_flowtable_type_get(). Therefore, there is pertential data-race of nf_tables_flowtables list entry. Use list_for_each_entry_rcu() to iterate over nf_tables_flowtables list in __nft_flowtable_type_get(), and use rcu_read_lock() in the caller nft_flowtable_type_get() to protect the entire type query process.
