Pablo Neira Ayuso 5014aa9374 netfilter: nf_tables: use-after-free in dynamic operations
[ Upstream commit 3f3a390dbd ]

Smatch reports:

       net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c:2167 nf_tables_expr_destroy()
        error: dereferencing freed memory 'expr->ops'

net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c
    2162 static void nf_tables_expr_destroy(const struct nft_ctx *ctx,
    2163                                   struct nft_expr *expr)
    2164 {
    2165        if (expr->ops->destroy)
    2166                expr->ops->destroy(ctx, expr);
                                                ^^^^
--> 2167        module_put(expr->ops->type->owner);
                           ^^^^^^^^^
    2168 }

Smatch says there are three functions which free expr->ops.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
