So it will never exceed U8_MAX. Furthermore, in nft_immediate_init, we forget to call nft_data_uninit when desc.len exceeds U8_MAX, although this will not happen, but it's a logical mistake. Now remove these redundant validation introduced by commit 36b701fae12a ("netfilter: nf_tables: validate maximum value of u32 netlink attributes") Signed-off-by: Liping Zhang Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso --- diff --git a/net/netfilter/nft_cmp.c b/net/netfilter/nft_cmp.c index 2e53739812b1..e25b35d70e4d 100644 --- a/net/netfilter/nft_cmp.c +++ b/net/netfilter/nft_cmp.c @@ -84,9 +84,6 @@ static int nft_cmp_init(const struct nft_ctx *ctx, const struct nft_expr *expr, if (err < 0) return err; - if (desc.len > U8_MAX) - return -ERANGE; - priv->op = ntohl(nla_get_be32(tb[NFTA_CMP_OP])); priv->len = desc.len; return 0; diff --git a/net/netfilter/nft_immediate.c b/net/netfilter/nft_immediate.c index d17018ff54e6..4528adea7ede 100644 --- a/net/netfilter/nft_immediate.c +++ b/net/netfilter/nft_immediate.c @@ -54,9 +54,6 @@ static int nft_immediate_init(const struct nft_ctx *ctx, if (err < 0) return err; - if (desc.len > U8_MAX) - return -ERANGE; - priv->dlen = desc.len; priv->dreg = nft_parse_register(tb[NFTA_IMMEDIATE_DREG]);
