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

ipv6: use RCU iterator to dump route exceptions

rt6_nh_dump_exceptions() uses hlist_for_each_entry() to iterate over RCU-protected exception lists. The caller holds rcu_read_lock(), but does not hold rt6_exception_lock, so rt6_insert_exception() can concurrently add an entry with hlist_add_head_rcu().

KCSAN reports this race (irrelevant details omitted):

Use hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() to safely iterate over the exception list.

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.
