CVE-2024-50257
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: Fix use-after-free in get_info()
ip6table_nat module unload has refcnt warning for UAF. call trace is:
Concurrent execution of module unload and get_info() trigered the warning. The root cause is as follows:
cpu0 cpu1 module_exit //mod->state = MODULE_STATE_GOING ip6table_nat_exit xt_unregister_template kfree(t) //removed from templ_list getinfo() t = xt_find_table_lock list_for_each_entry(tmpl, &xt_templates[af]...) if (strcmp(tmpl->name, name)) continue; //table not found try_module_get list_for_each_entry(t, &xt_net->tables[af]...) return t; //not get refcnt module_put(t->me) //uaf unregister_pernet_subsys //remove table from xt_net list

While xt_table module was going away and has been removed from xt_templates list, we couldnt get refcnt of xt_table->me. Check module in xt_net->tables list re-traversal to fix it.
