When a connection is re-used, following can happen:
[ connection starts to close, fin sent in either direction ]
 &gt; syn   # initator quickly reuses connection
 &lt; ack   # peer sends a challenge ack
 &gt; rst   # rst, sequence number == ack_seq of previous challenge ack
 &gt; syn   # this syn is expected to pass

Problem is that the rst will fail window validation, so it gets
tagged as invalid.

If ruleset drops such packets, we get repeated syn-retransmits until
initator gives up or peer starts responding with syn/ack.

Before the commit indicated in the "Fixes" tag below this used to work:

The challenge-ack made conntrack re-init state based on the challenge
ack itself, so the following rst would pass window validation.

Add challenge-ack support: If we get ack for syn, record the ack_seq,
and then check if the rst sequence number matches the last ack number
seen in reverse direction.

<title>netfilter: nft_payload: incorrect arithmetics when fetching VLAN header bits</title>

If the offset + length goes over the ethernet + vlan header, then the
length is adjusted to copy the bytes that are within the boundaries of
the vlan_ethhdr scratchpad area. The remaining bytes beyond ethernet +
vlan header are copied directly from the skbuff data area.

Fix incorrect arithmetic operator: subtract, not add, the size of the
vlan header in case of double-tagged packets to adjust the length
accordingly to address CVE-2023-0179.

When first_ip is 0, last_ip is 0xFFFFFFFF, and netmask is 31, the value of
an arithmetic expression 2 &lt;&lt; (netmask - mask_bits - 1) is subject
to overflow due to a failure casting operands to a larger data type
before performing the arithmetic.

Note that it's harmless since the value will be checked at the next step.

When adding/deleting large number of elements in one step in ipset, it can
take a reasonable amount of time and can result in soft lockup errors. The
patch 5f7b51bf09ba ("netfilter: ipset: Limit the maximal range of
consecutive elements to add/delete") tried to fix it by limiting the max
elements to process at all. However it was not enough, it is still possible
that we get hung tasks. Lowering the limit is not reasonable, so the
approach in this patch is as follows: rely on the method used at resizing
sets and save the state when we reach a smaller internal batch limit,
unlock/lock and proceed from the saved state. Thus we can avoid long
continuous tasks and at the same time removed the limit to add/delete large
number of elements in one step.

The nfnl mutex is held during the whole operation which prevents one to
issue other ipset commands in parallel.

commit 5f7b51bf09baca8e titled "netfilter: ipset: Limit the maximal range

<title>treewide: Convert del_timer*() to timer_shutdown*()</title>

Due to several bugs caused by timers being re-armed after they are
shutdown and just before they are freed, a new state of timers was added
called "shutdown".  After a timer is set to this state, then it can no
longer be re-armed.

The following script was run to find all the trivial locations where
del_timer() or del_timer_sync() is called in the same function that the
object holding the timer is freed.  It also ignores any locations where
the timer-&gt;function is modified between the del_timer*() and the free(),
as that is not considered a "trivial" case.

Due to several bugs caused by timers being re-armed after they are
shutdown and just before they are freed, a new state of timers was added
called "shutdown".  After a timer is set to this state, then it can no
longer be re-armed.

The following script was run to find all the trivial locations where
del_timer() or del_timer_sync() is called in the same function that the
object holding the timer is freed.  It also ignores any locations where
the timer-&gt;function is modified between the del_timer*() and the free(),
as that is not considered a "trivial" case.

This was created by using a coccinelle script and the following
commands:

    $ cat timer.cocci

Set timeout and garbage collection interval updates are ignored on
updates. Add transaction to update global set element timeout and
garbage collection interval.

If a ruleset declares a set name that matches an existing set in the
kernel, then validate that this declaration really refers to the same
set, otherwise bail out with EEXIST.

Currently, the kernel reports success when adding a set that already
exists in the kernel. This usually results in EINVAL errors at a later
stage, when the user adds elements to the set, if the set declaration
mismatches the existing set representation in the kernel.

Add a new function to check that the set declaration really refers to
the same existing set in the kernel.

Add a helper function to allocate and initialize the stateful expressions
that are defined in a set.

This patch allows to reuse this code from the set update path, to check
that type of the update matches the existing set in the kernel.
