In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: nf_tables: always walk all pending catchall elements

During transaction processing we might have more than one catchall element:
1 live catchall element and 1 pending element that is coming as part of the
new batch.

If the map holding the catchall elements is also going away, its
required to toggle all catchall elements and not just the first viable
candidate.

Otherwise, we get:

Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection') 🎯 Medium

The product constructs all or part of a code segment using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the syntax or behavior of the intended code segment.

🛡️ Empfohlene Mitigation: Refactor your program so that you do not have to dynamically generate code.
