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

netfilter: nftables: clone set element expression template

memcpy() breaks when using connlimit in set elements. Use
nft_expr_clone() to initialize the connlimit expression list, otherwise
connlimit garbage collector crashes when walking on the list head copy.
