The use after free was introduced in 5.19, and the next patch takes care
of the possible overflow of the bridges array that has been around since
3.12.

But sure, this oversight has been there since 3.12. I'll reconsider
adding the other Fixes tag. The stable team struggles with context
changes apparently so not sure it's worth backporting, though.
