| CVE-2024-26925 | Date: (C)2024-04-25 (M)2024-04-26 |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: release mutex after nft_gc_seq_end from abort path
The commit mutex should not be released during the critical section
between nft_gc_seq_begin() and nft_gc_seq_end(), otherwise, async GC
worker could collect expired objects and get the released commit lock
within the same GC sequence.
nf_tables_module_autoload() temporarily releases the mutex to load
module dependencies, then it goes back to replay the transaction again.
Move it at the end of the abort phase after nft_gc_seq_end() is called.
