I ran a few times "valgrind --tool=memcheck --show-reachable=yes conntrack -L" and I always get different "Invalid read of size " messages. The messages always seem to appear before the first listed connection. I tried to track this down in the code, and I suspect it has to do with the NL message alignment in nfnl_step, but this is only a hunch.
