Description

There are firewall rules invoked without checking the existence of the dependent kernel modules, e.g. xt_owner and xt_conntrack. These modules reside in kernel-modules-extra in distros like RHEL. The kernel-modules-extra package is not a dependency of iptables in terms of UKI. Thus the existence deserves checking.

Issue #3510
