Subject: CVE-2022-48643: netfilter: nf_tables: fix nft_counters_enabled underflow at nf_tables_addchain()
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: fix nft_counters_enabled underflow at nf_tables_addchain()
syzbot is reporting underflow of nft_counters_enabled counter at
nf_tables_addchain() [1], for commit 43eb8949cfdffa76 ("netfilter:
nf_tables: do not leave chain stats enabled on error") missed that
nf_tables_chain_destroy() after nft_basechain_init() in the error path of
nf_tables_addchain() decrements the counter because nft_basechain_init()
makes nft_is_base_chain() return true by setting NFT_CHAIN_BASE flag.
Increment the counter immediately after returning from
nft_basechain_init().
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2022-48643 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
