In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net/sched: flower: Fix chain template offload

When a qdisc is deleted from a net device the stack instructs the
underlying driver to remove its flow offload callback from the
associated filter block using the 'FLOW_BLOCK_UNBIND' command. The stack
then continues to replay the removal of the filters in the block for
this driver by iterating over the chains in the block and invoking the
'reoffload' operation of the classifier being used. In turn, the
classifier in its 'reoffload' operation prepares and emits a
'FLOW_CLS_DESTROY' command for each filter.

However, the stack does not do the same for chain templates and the
underlying driver never receives a 'FLOW_CLS_TMPLT_DESTROY' command when
a qdisc is deleted. This results in a memory leak [1] which can be
reproduced using [2].

Fix by introducing a 'tmplt_reoffload' operation and have the stack
invoke it with the appropriate arguments as part of the replay.
Implement the operation in the sole classifier that supports chain
templates (flower) by emitting the 'FLOW_CLS_TMPLT_{CREATE,DESTROY}'
command based on whether a flow offload callback is being bound to a
filter block or being unbound from one.

As far as I can tell, the issue happens since cited commit which
reordered tcf_block_offload_unbind() before tcf_block_flush_all_chains()
in __tcf_block_put(). The order cannot be reversed as the filter block
is expected to be freed after flushing all the chains.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: net/sched: flower: descarga de plantilla de cadena fija Cuando se elimina una qdisc de un dispositivo de red, la pila indica al controlador subyacente que elimine su devolución de llamada de descarga de flujo del bloque de filtro asociado mediante el comando Comando 'FLOW_BLOCK_UNBIND'. Luego, la pila continúa reproduciendo la eliminación de los filtros en el bloque para este controlador iterando sobre las cadenas en el bloque e invocando la operación de "redescarga" del clasificador que se está utilizando. A su vez, el clasificador en su operación de 'redescarga' prepara y emite un comando 'FLOW_CLS_DESTROY' para cada filtro. Sin embargo, la pila no hace lo mismo con las plantillas de cadena y el controlador subyacente nunca recibe un comando 'FLOW_CLS_TMPLT_DESTROY' cuando se elimina una qdisc. Esto da como resultado una pérdida de memoria [1] que se puede reproducir usando [2]. Para solucionarlo, introduzca una operación 'tmplt_reoffload' y haga que la pila la invoque con los argumentos apropiados como parte de la reproducción. Implemente la operación en el único clasificador que admite plantillas de cadena (flor) emitiendo el comando 'FLOW_CLS_TMPLT_{CREATE,DESTROY}' en función de si una devolución de llamada de descarga de flujo está vinculada a un bloque de filtro o no está vinculada a uno. Por lo que puedo decir, el problema ocurre desde el commit que reordenó tcf_block_offload_unbind() antes de tcf_block_flush_all_chains() en __tcf_block_put(). El orden no se puede invertir ya que se espera que el bloque del filtro se libere después de lavar todas las cadenas.
