  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: bridge: fix soft lockup in br_multicast_query_expired()\n\nWhen set multicast_query_interval to a large value, the local variable\n'time' in br_multicast_send_query() may overflow. If the time is smaller\nthan jiffies, the timer will expire immediately, and then call mod_timer()\nagain, which creates a loop and may trigger the following soft lockup\nissue.\n\n  watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#1 stuck for 221s!
