    The ct may be dropped if a clash has been resolved but is still passed to
    the tcf_ct_flow_table_process_conn function for further usage. This issue
    can be fixed by retrieving ct from skb again after confirming conntrack.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.
