Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: nf_tables: Fix a memory leak in nf_tables_updchain

If nft_netdev_register_hooks() fails, the memory associated with
nft_stats is not freed, causing a memory leak.

This patch fixes it by moving nft_stats_alloc() down after
nft_netdev_register_hooks() succeeds.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: netfilter: nf_tables: corrige una pérdida de memoria en nf_tables_updchain Si nft_netdev_register_hooks() falla, la memoria asociada con nft_stats no se libera, lo que provoca una pérdida de memoria. Este parche lo soluciona moviendo nft_stats_alloc() hacia abajo después de que nft_netdev_register_hooks() tenga éxito.
