While this issue is known, it is due to a regression in iptables 1.8.4 and isn't something ufw should fix. Please see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=949518#12 for ways to workaround the issue, or downgrade to 1.8.3-2 until iptables is fixed (see http://snapshot.debian.org/package/iptables/1.8.3-2/).

I'm going to leave the ufw task as open for now so people can more readily find the bug and will close it when Debian has fixed iptables.

I tested 1.8.4-3 today, which includes the upstream fix and it worked great.
