In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: hsr: fix memory leak on slave unregistration by removing synced VLANs
When an HSR master device is brought UP, it auto-adds VLAN 0 via
vlan_vid0_add(), which propagates VID 0 to its slave devices (slave A and B).
If a slave device is later unregistered while HSR is active (e.g., during
netns cleanup or interface destruction), hsr_del_port() is called to
detach the slave port from the HSR master. However, hsr_del_port() currently
does not delete the VLAN IDs that were synced to the slave device by HSR.
As a result, the slave device retains a refcount on VID 0 (and any other
synced VLANs). When the slave device is destroyed, its vlan_info /
vlan_vid_info structure remains allocated, leading to a memory leak.
Fix this by calling vlan_vids_del_by_dev(port->dev, master->dev) in
hsr_del_port() before unlinking slave A or slave B ports, matching the
propagation logic in hsr_ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid() / hsr_ndo_vlan_rx_kill_vid()
and the cleanup behavior in bonding and team drivers.
What the EG score is made of (scorer v4.0: the three questions the 0–10 score mixes, published apart · methodology)
- EG Severity
- Not assessed: no CVSS publishedA missing CVSS is not a severity of zero.
- EG Likelihood
- 0.2% within 30 daysSource: FIRST EPSS (model v2026.06.15, score date 2026-10-17). FIRST's exploitation probability, not an EchelonGraph model.

BOD 26-04 (CISA's remediation timeline, Table 1)14 days if the affected system is publicly exposed; Fix on system upgrade if it is not.
In CISA KEV no (CISA's KEV catalog) · Automatable no (CISA's BOD 26-04 default) · Technical impact total (CISA's BOD 26-04 default). Where an input reads “CISA's BOD 26-04 default”, no one has published it for this CVE, and CISA's implementation guidance says: “If “Automatable” and “Technical Impact” information items about a CVE ID are not available and the CVE ID is not in the KEV Catalog, CISA will treat its values as “no” and “total,” respectively, until CISA or a third party provides metadata about the CVE ID. CISA will always provide the Vulnrichment data for a CVE ID listed in the KEV Catalog.” Whether your system is publicly exposed is yours to answer. BOD 26-04 binds US Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies; for anyone else it is CISA's published timeline, a reference rather than an obligation. The directive · how EchelonGraph applies it
