Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

Linux kernel是美国Linux基金会开源的一款操作系统内核。 Linux kernel存在安全漏洞，该漏洞源于xtables注销过程中对临时表的处理不当（xtables_unregister_table_pre_exit将表从数据路径分离并断开活动表列表；若模块卸载时用户态通过set/getsockopt引用该表则无法重新实例化表，因原临时表已被移除且实例化表已脱离xt pernet表列表），可能导致用户态无法重新实例化表。

Vulnerability Title
netfilter: x_tables: add and use xtables_unregister_table_exit
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: x_tables: add and use xtables_unregister_table_exit Previous change added xtables_unregister_table_pre_exit to detach the table from the packetpath and to unlink it from the active table list. In case of rmmod, userspace that is doing set/getsockopt for this table will not be able to re-instantiate the table: 1. The larval table has been removed already 2. existing instantiated table is no longer on the xt pernet table list. This adds the second stage helper: unlink the table from the dying list, free the hook ops (if any) and do the audit notification. It replaces xt_unregister_table().
