Description Andrew Vagin 2017-06-07 18:51:45 UTC 
Description of problem:
[root@zdtm ~]# iptables -w -t filter --protocol tcp -A INPUT --dport 12345 -j DROP
[root@zdtm ~]# iptables -w -t filter --protocol tcp -D INPUT --dport 12345 -j DROP
iptables: Bad rule (does a matching rule exist in that chain?).
[root@zdtm ~]# uname -a
Linux zdtm.openvz.org 4.11.3-200.fc25.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu May 25 19:03:07 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The same set of commands works fine on previous kernels
[root@zdtm ~]# iptables -w -t filter --protocol tcp -A INPUT --dport 12345 -j DROP
[root@zdtm ~]# iptables -w -t filter --protocol tcp -D INPUT --dport 12345 -j DROP
[root@zdtm ~]# uname -a



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. unshare -n
2. iptables -w -t filter --protocol tcp -A INPUT --dport 12345 -j DROP
3. iptables -w -t filter --protocol tcp -D INPUT --dport 12345 -j DROP

Actual results:
iptables returns the error and non-zero exit code

Expected results:
iptables exits with 0 without errors

Comment 2 Florian Westphal 2017-06-21 08:45:21 UTC 
This was fixed with
commit 324318f0248c31be8a08984146e7e4dd7cdd091d
netfilter: xtables: zero padding in data_to_user

I've sent a request to include it in 4.11.y to stable maintainers.
