commitd738feccb9upstream. When a userspace conntrack helper with multiple expectation classes is updated via nfnetlink, every class ends up with the first class's max_expected and timeout values. nfnl_cthelper_update_policy_all() validates each new policy into the corresponding slot of the temporary new_policy array, but the second loop that commits the values into the live helper dereferences new_policy as a pointer instead of indexing it, so every iteration reads new_policy[0] regardless of i. An update that changes per-class values is silently collapsed onto class 0's values with no error returned to userspace. Index the temporary array by i in the commit loop so each class gets its own validated values.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
