kernel: netfilter: nf_tables: use timestamp to check for set element timeout

A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s netfilter subsystem in how a user triggers the element timeout. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system...

kernel: netfilter: nf_tables: disallow anonymous set with timeout flag

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nftables: disallow anonymous set with timeout flag Anonymous sets are never used with timeout from userspace, reject this. Exception to this rule is NFTSETEVAL to ensure legacy meters still work...
