[ Upstream commit 2045cdfa1b40d66f126f3fd05604fc7c754f0022 ] Loading the nf_conntrack module with doubled hashsize parameter, i.e. modprobe nf_conntrack hashsize=12345 hashsize=12345 causes NULL-ptr deref. If 'hashsize' specified twice, the nf_conntrack_set_hashsize() function will be called also twice. The first nf_conntrack_set_hashsize() call will set the 'nf_conntrack_htable_size' variable: nf_conntrack_set_hashsize() ... /* On boot, we can set this without any fancy locking. */ if (!nf_conntrack_htable_size) return param_set_uint(val, kp); But on the second invocation, the nf_conntrack_htable_size is already set, so the nf_conntrack_set_hashsize() will take a different path and call the nf_conntrack_hash_resize() function. Which will crash on the attempt to dereference 'nf_conntrack_hash' pointer: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000000 RIP: 0010:nf_conntrack_hash_resize+0x255/0x490 [nf_conntrack] Call Trace: nf_conntrack_set_hashsize+0xcd/0x100 [nf_conntrack] parse_args+0x1f9/0x5a0 load_module+0x1281/0x1a50 __se_sys_finit_module+0xbe/0xf0 do_syscall_64+0x7c/0x390 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x49/0xbe Fix this, by checking !nf_conntrack_hash instead of !nf_conntrack_htable_size. nf_conntrack_hash will be initialized only after the module loaded, so the second invocation of the nf_conntrack_set_hashsize() won't crash, it will just reinitialize nf_conntrack_htable_size again.
