A dump may be split across multiple skbs and remain pending after the initial request.</p> <p>Netlink pins the module which owns the dump callback, but in this case that is the controller&#39;s owner rather than the target family&#39;s owner. The target family can consequently be unregistered and its module unloaded while a policy dump is pending. Advancing the dump then dereferences policy memory from the unloaded module.</p> <p>Take a reference to the target family&#39;s module when the dump starts. Drop it from the error and done paths. This matches the lifetime for which the dump context retains the family and policy pointers.</p> <p><strong>Affected:</strong> Linux</p> <p>In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:</p> <p>genetlink: pin family module during policy dump</p> <p>The generic netlink controller&#39;s policy dump keeps pointers to the target family&#39;s operation and policy tables in its callback state.
