In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: bridge: use option bits for CFM/MRP frame handlers

CFM and MRP register a global br_frame_type whose hlist_node is linked into the per-bridge frame_type_list when the first MEP/MRP instance is created. Enabling the protocol on multiple bridges therefore inserts the same node into multiple lists. Unregistering it on one bridge then corrupts list state belonging to another.

These handlers can only be installed once per bridge, and they are uncommon. Track their per-bridge enable state with net_bridge option bits, which already live on the Rx hot cache line, and dispatch the matching handler directly from the receive path. Check both bits together first as an unlikely case.

Remove the generic frame_type_list and br_frame_type helpers, which have had no other users since CFM and MRP were added. That shrinks struct net_bridge by 8 bytes and drops the list walk from the fast path. When neither protocol is compiled in, BR_CFM_MRP_OPTS is 0 and the compiler prunes the branch.

What every action level means
Emergency Immediate action required. Criteria: CRITICAL + in CISA KEV (actively exploited) without patch, OR CRITICAL + EPSS > 30% without patch, OR CRITICAL + active threat signals without patch.
Act Now Prioritize within 24-48h. Criteria: in KEV with patch available, OR CRITICAL + public POC, OR HIGH + EPSS > 10%, OR CRITICAL + active threat, OR any CRITICAL severity.
This Week Schedule remediation this week. Criteria: HIGH severity (CVSS 7.0-8.9). Patch within normal change window.
This Month Plan within 30 days. Criteria: MEDIUM severity (CVSS 4.0-6.9), lower exploitation probability. Include in regular patch cycle.
Monitor Track and reassess. Criteria: LOW severity (CVSS 0.1-3.9), minimal exploitation risk. No immediate action needed.
