Summary
CVE-2024-27020 affecting package kernel for versions less than 5.15.158.1-1
Details

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

netfilter: nf_tables: Fix potential data-race in _nftexprtypeget()

nftunregisterexpr() can concurrent with __nftexprtype_get(), and there is not any protection when iterate over nftablesexpressions list in _nftexprtypeget(). Therefore, there is potential data-race of nftablesexpressions list entry.

Use listforeachentryrcu() to iterate over nftablesexpressions list in __nftexprtypeget(), and use rcureadlock() in the caller nftexprtypeget() to protect the entire type query process.
