Looking at the log file:

https://syzkaller.appspot.com/text?tag=CrashLog&x=110a3096d00000

This is mixing calls to nftables:

14:43:16 executing program 0:
r0 = socket$nl_netfilter(0x10, 0x3, 0xc)
sendmsg$NFT_BATCH(r0, &(0x7f000000c2c0)={0x0, 0x0, &(0x7f0000000000)={&(0x7f00000001c0)={{0x9}, [@NFT_MSG_NEWTABLE={0x28, 0x0, 0xa, 0x3, 0x0, 0x0, {0x2}, [@NFTA_TABLE_NAME={0x9, 0x1, 'syz0\x00'}, @NFTA_TABLE_FLAGS={0x8}]}], {0x14}}, 0x50}}, 0x0)

with arptables:

14:43:16 executing program 1:
r0 = socket$inet_udp(0x2, 0x2, 0x0)
setsockopt$ARPT_SO_SET_REPLACE(r0, 0x0, 0x60, &(0x7f0000000000)={'filter\x00', 0x4, 0x4, 0x3f8, 0x310, 0x200, 0x200, 0x310, 0x310, 0x310, 0x4, 0x0, {[{{@arp={@broadcast, @rand_addr, 0x87010000, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, {@mac=@link_local}, {@mac}, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 'bridge0\x00', 'erspan0\x00'}, 0xc0, 0x100}, @unspec=@RATEEST={0x40, 'RATEEST\x00', 0x0, {'syz1\x00', 0x0, 0x4}}}, {{@arp={@initdev={0xac, 0x1e, 0x0, 0x0}, @local, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, {@mac=@remote}, {}, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 'veth0_to_bridge\x00', 'geneve1\x00'}, 0xc0, 0x100}, @unspec=@RATEEST={0x40, 'RATEEST\x00', 0x0, {'syz0\x00', 0x0, 0x2}}}, {{@arp={@local, @multicast1, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, {}, {@mac=@broadcast}, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 'veth0_to_batadv\x00', 'veth0_to_hsr\x00'}, 0xc0, 0x110}, @mangle={0x50, 'mangle\x00', 0x0, {@mac=@remote, @mac=@local, @multicast2, @initdev={0xac, 0x1e, 0x0, 0x0}}}}], {{[], 0xc0, 0xe8}, {0x28}}}}, 0x448)

arptables was buggy at the time this bug has been reported.

Am I understanding correctly the syzbot log?

I wonder if the (buggy) arptables removed the incorrect hook from
nftables, then nftables crashed on the same location when removing the
hook. I don't see a clear sequence for this to happen though.

Would it be possible to make syzbot exercise the NFT_MSG_NEWTABLE
codepath (with NFTA_TABLE_FLAGS) to check if the problem still
persists?

Thanks.
