Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
netfilter: nf_tables: netlink notifier might race to release objects<br />
<br />
commit release path is invoked via call_rcu and it runs lockless to<br />
release the objects after rcu grace period. The netlink notifier handler<br />
might win race to remove objects that the transaction context is still<br />
referencing from the commit release path.<br />
<br />

if the list of transactions to be destroyed is not empty.
