CISA KEV is observed exploitation evidence. FIRST EPSS is a dated prediction of exploitation in the next 30 days. Missing scores are unknown. This collector requests predictions only for explicit CVE aliases in the public NuGet archive; Microsoft release views retain their existing prediction scope.
No collected risk observation for these identifiers. This does not establish absence of exploitation or a zero probability.

Published
netfilter: flowtable: generalize pending status bit
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: flowtable: generalize pending status bit
Rename NF_FLOW_HW_PENDING to NF_FLOW_PENDING and use it to inhibit the
flowtable GC worker until pending hw offload work has been completed.
Apparently, nf_flow_offload_stats() can schedule work to retrieve stats
while the flow is being removed by GC.
And this bit can also be used in a follow up patch to disable GC until
the flow has been fully added in both directions.
Revert the reordering done in commit d644b23afe1e ("netfilter:
flowtable: publish HW_DEAD after worker is done") to prevent a race
between GC and hw offload handler.
