Summary
CVE-2026-52912 affecting package kernel for versions less than 6.6.143.1-1
Details

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

netfilter: nf_queue: hold bridge skb->dev while queued

brpassframeup() rewrites skb->dev from the ingress port to the bridge master before queueing bridge LOCALIN packets. NFQUEUE only holds references on state.in/out and bridge physdevs, so a queued bridge packet can retain a freed bridge master in skb->dev until reinjection.

When the verdict is reinjected later, brnetifreceive_skb() re-enters the receive path with skb->dev still pointing at the freed bridge master, triggering a use-after-free.

Store skb->dev in the queue entry, hold a reference on it for the queue lifetime, and use the saved device when dropping queued packets during NETDEV_DOWN handling.
