CVE-2013-4129

UnknownEPSS 0.45%

Last modified

CVE-2013-4129 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The bridge multicast implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.10.3 does not check whether a certain timer is armed before modifying the timeout value of that timer, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG and system crash) via vectors involving the shutdown of a KVM virtual machine, related to net/bridge/br_mdb.c and net/bridge/br_multicast.c.. EPSS estimates a 0.45% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
