The old code can't be correct. Basically it was:
| struct nlattr *tb[attr_max];
[...]
| for (i = 1; i <= attr_max; i++) {
| if (tb[i]) {
[...]
So in the last round, it accesses 'tb[attr_max]' which is out of bounds.
Regarding the question of whether the array is big enough at all, I had
a look at values in 'timeout_protocol' array struct field values
'attr_max': either NFTNL_CTTIMEOUT_TCP_MAX or NFTNL_CTTIMEOUT_UDP_MAX.
Both are last items in unions so serve only for defining array sizes.
Without checking differences between NFTNL_CTTIMEOUT_* and respective
NFTA_* symbols, I'd bet the array is large enough! :)
Cheers, Phil
