netfilter: nf_tables: Fix dereference of null pointer flow
In the case where chain->flags & NFT_CHAIN_HW_OFFLOAD is false then nft_flow_rule_create is not called and flow is NULL. The subsequent error handling execution via label err_destroy_flow_rule will lead to a null pointer dereference on flow when calling nft_flow_rule_destroy. Since the error path to err_destroy_flow_rule has to cater for null and non-null flows, only call nft_flow_rule_destroy if flow is non-null to fix this issue. Addresses-Coverity: ("Explicity null dereference") Fixes: 3c5e44622011 ("netfilter: nf_tables: memleak in hw offload abort path") Signed-off-by: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
