Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
netfilter: synproxy: add mutex to guard hook reference counting<br />
<br />
As the synproxy infrastructure register netfilter hooks on-demand when a<br />
user adds the first iptables target or nftables expression, if done<br />
concurrently they can race each other.<br />
<br />
Introduce a mutex to serialize the refcount control blocks access from<br />
both frontends. While a per namespace mutex might be more efficient, it<br />
is not needed for target/expression like SYNPROXY.
