Ensure a Table Exists for Nftables

Description

Tables in nftables hold chains. Each table only has one address family and only applies to packets of this family. Tables can have one of six families.

Rationale

Nftables doesn’t have any default tables. Without a table being built, nftables will not filter network traffic. Note: adding rules to a running nftables can cause loss of connectivity to the system.

Remediation

Shell script

The following script can be run on the host to remediate the issue.

#!/bin/bash

# Remediation is applicable only in certain platforms
if dpkg-query --show --showformat='${db:Status-Status}\n' 'nftables' 2>/dev/null | grep -q installed; then

#Set nftables family name
var_nftables_family='inet'


#Set nftables table name
var_nftables_table='filter'


IS_TABLE=$(nft list tables)
if [ -z "$IS_TABLE" ]
then
  nft create table "$var_nftables_family" "$var_nftables_table"
fi

else
    >&2 echo 'Remediation is not applicable, nothing was done'
fi

Ansible playbook

The following playbook can be run with Ansible to remediate the issue.
