mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.8 commit 552705a3650bbf46a22b1adedc1b04181490fc36 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I9AK7L CVE: CVE-2024-26643
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i...
---------------------------
While the rhashtable set gc runs asynchronously, a race allows it to collect elements from anonymous sets with timeouts while it is being released from the commit path.
Mingi Cho originally reported this issue in a different path in 6.1.x with a pipapo set with low timeouts which is not possible upstream since 7395dfacfff6 ("netfilter: nf_tables: use timestamp to check for set element timeout").
Fix this by setting on the dead flag for anonymous sets to skip async gc in this case.
According to 08e4c8c5919f ("netfilter: nf_tables: mark newset as dead on transaction abort"), Florian plans to accelerate abort path by releasing objects via workqueue, therefore, this sets on the dead flag for abort path too.
