[ Upstream commit e3245a7b7b34bd2e97f744fd79463add6e9d41f4 ] Syzbot hit use-after-free in nf_tables_dump_sets. The problem was in missing lock protection for nft_ct_pcpu_template_refcnt. Before commit f102d66b335a ("netfilter: nf_tables: use dedicated mutex to guard transactions") all transactions were serialized by global mutex, but then global mutex was changed to local per netnamespace commit_mutex. This change causes use-after-free bug, when 2 netnamespaces concurently changing nft_ct_pcpu_template_refcnt without proper locking. Fix it by adding nft_ct_pcpu_mutex and protect all nft_ct_pcpu_template_refcnt changes with it.

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.
