CVE-2026-74718

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description A reference leak occurs in the devlink component during a reload operation.

If the requested namespace differs from the current one and the reload action is not DRIVER REINIT, the function returns an error without releasing the reference via put net().

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
