RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Thomas Woerner 2016-09-05 15:49:46 UTC
Description of problem:
An error in the permanent direct rules will make all other direct rules using a table other than the filter table not applicable.

firewall.core.{ipXtables,ebtables}: Copy rule before extracting items in set_rules

In set_rules, the rules are grouped by table to be able to create the
iptables-save format without changing the table serveral times.

For this the table is extracted from the rule and therefore also removed from
the rule. But this is not done on a copy of the rule, but the internal rule.
This results in removing the table information from the rule completely, which
is an issue if the rule can not be applied in the transaction and the
generous_mode is used to be able to assign the rules one by one. This is the
case for rules saved in direct.xml.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
firewalld-0.4.3.2-6.el7

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add two permanent direct rules to the direct interface. One with an error:

firewall-cmd --permanent --direct --add-rule ipv4 nat PERROUTING 0 -m mac --mac-source xx:xx:xx:xx:xx -j MARK --set-mark 1
firewall-cmd --permanent --direct --add-rule ipv4 nat PREROUTING 0 -m mac --mac-source 00:11:22:33:44:55 -j MARK --set-mark 1
   
2. Reload firewalld
3. Test which rules are there:

iptables-save | grep mac-source

Actual results:
No rules

Expected results:
# iptables-save | grep mac-source
-A PREROUTING_direct -m mac --mac-source 00:11:22:33:44:55 -j MARK --set-xmark 0x1/0xffffffff
