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

net: bridge: mcast: wait for previous gc cycles when removing port

syzbot hit a use-after-free[1] which is caused because the bridge doesn’t
make sure that all previous garbage has been collected when removing a
port. What happens is:
CPU 1 CPU 2
start gc cycle remove port
acquire gc lock first
wait for lock
call br_multicasg_gc() directly
acquire lock now but free port
the port can be freed
while grp timers still
running

Make sure all previous gc cycles have finished by using flush_work before
freeing the port.
