Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bridge: br_nd_send: linearize skb before parsing ND options br_nd_send() parses neighbour discovery options from ns->opt[] and assumes that these options are in the linear part of request. Its callers only guarantee that the ICMPv6 header and target address are available, so the option area can still be non-linear. Parsing ns->opt[] in that case can access data past the linear buffer. Linearize request before option parsing and derive ns from the linear network header.

In bridged physical or virtual deployments, a network peer can send the crafted packet to the affected bridge path.\nAC:L - There is no race, and the attacker controls the packet contents and can repeat attempts to hit a non-linear skb receive path. Neighbor suppression and a valid neighbor/FDB state are deployment prerequisites, but not per-attempt conditions outside a reasonable affected configuration.\nPR:N - The packet receive path has no credential or authentication check before `br_nd_send()` is reached. CAP_NET_ADMIN is needed to configure bridge neighbor suppression, but exploiting an already configured bridge requires no privileges.\nUI:N - No victim user action is required once the bridge is in the affected configuration. The attacker only needs to send crafted network traffic.\nS:U - The vulnerable component and impacted resources are the same kernel networking/bridge security authority. This is not a hypervisor, IOMMU, or separate security-scope escape by itself.\nC:H - The bug is an out-of-bounds read past the skb linear area while parsing attacker-controlled ND options. The read data can influence bytes copied into the generated Neighbor Advertisement, and under the required rule an OOB read that is not strictly bounded to a few bytes is High.\nI:N - The vulnerable operation reads memory past the linear skb buffer but does not write to kernel memory or provide a direct data-modification primitive. The generated reply may be misaddressed, but the bug does not give meaningful integrity modification.\nA:H - Reading past the linear buffer can trigger a kernel fault/oops or panic depending on skb layout and memory mapping. The attack can be repeated remotely against the bridge receive path, making availability impact High."
