      <title>CVE-2024-26924 — netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: do not free live element</title>
      <link>https://cve.radiocsirt.org/vuln/cve-2024-26924</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux, linux_kernel&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: do not free live element&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pablo reports a crash with large batches of elements with a
back-to-back add/remove pattern.  Quoting Pablo:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;add_elem(&amp;#34;00000000&amp;#34;) timeout 100 ms
  ...
  add_elem(&amp;#34;0000000X&amp;#34;) timeout 100 ms
  del_elem(&amp;#34;0000000X&amp;#34;) &amp;lt;---------------- delete one that was just added
  ...
  add_elem(&amp;#34;00005000&amp;#34;) timeout 100 ms&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1) nft_pipapo_remove() removes element 0000000X
  Then, KASAN shows a splat.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Looking at the remove function there is a chance that we will drop a
rule that maps to a non-deactivated element.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Removal happens in two steps, first we do a lookup for key k and return the
to-be-removed element and mark it as inactive in the next generation.
Then, in a second step, the element gets removed from the set/map.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The _remove function does not work correctly if we have more than one
element that share the same key.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This can happen if we insert an element into a set when the set already
holds an element with same key, but the element mapping to the existing
key has timed out or is not active in the next generation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In such case its possible that removal will unmap the wrong element.
If this happens, we will leak the non-deactivated element, it becomes
unreachable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The element that got deactivated (and will be freed later) will
remain reachable in the set data structure, this can result in
a crash when such an element is retrieved during lookup (stale
pointer)…&lt;/p&gt;</description>
