  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ila: call nf_unregister_net_hooks()
    sooner syzbot found an use-after-free Read in ila_nf_input [1] Issue here is that ila_xlat_exit_net()
    frees the rhashtable, then call nf_unregister_net_hooks(). It should be done in the reverse way, with a
    synchronize_rcu(). This is a good match for a pre_exit() method. [1] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in
