Published Jul 19, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.8 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: bridge: eb_tables: close module init race

sashiko reports for unrelated patch:
Does the core ebtables initialization in ebtables.c suffer from a similar race?
Once nf_register_sockopt() completes, the sockopts are exposed globally.

sockopt has to be registered last, just like in ip/ip6/arptables.
