From 94f9cd81436c85d8c3a318ba92e236ede73752fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Munehisa Kamata Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2015 19:10:52 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: nf_nat_redirect: add missing NULL pointer check Commit 8b13eddfdf04cbfa561725cfc42d6868fe896f56 ("netfilter: refactor NAT redirect IPv4 to use it from nf_tables") has introduced a trivial logic change which can result in the following crash.

After the commit, however, it could be accessed even if it's NULL. Interestingly, this was once fixed in 2003. http://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=106668497403047&w=2 In addition to the original one, we have seen the crash when packets that need to be redirected somehow arrive on an interface which hasn't been yet fully configured. This change just reverts the logic to the old behavior to avoid the crash.
