In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: unlink table before deleting it
syzbot reports following UAF:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in memcmp+0x18f/0x1c0 lib/string.c:955
nla_strcmp+0xf2/0x130 lib/nlattr.c:836

netlink_rcv_skb+0x153/0x420 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2504
Problem is that all get operations are lockless, so the commit_mutex
held by nft_rcv_nl_event() isn't enough to stop a parallel GET request
from doing read-accesses to the table object even after synchronize_rcu().
To avoid this, unlink the table first and store the table objects in
on-stack scratch space.
