Use-after-free in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-64032

Published: July 20, 2026


Vulnerability identifier: #VU138610
CSH Severity: Low
CVSS v4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64032
CWE-ID: CWE-416
Exploitation vector: Local access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free in the bridge multicast handling in net/bridge/br_multicast.c when removing a bridge port after toggling multicast snooping states. A local user can trigger bridge port state transitions that leave a multicast context enabled on a freed bridge port to cause a denial of service.

The issue occurs when per-VLAN multicast snooping is enabled and global multicast snooping is toggled in a way that leaves both per-port and per-{port, VLAN} multicast contexts enabled on the same port.
