CVE-2026-99078

The Linux kernel contains a vulnerability in the net/mlx5e driver where AF_XDP on a striding RQ can result in stale XSK buffer releases during an MPWQE refill retry . If an XSK allocation returns -ENOMEM, the actual_wq_head is not advanced, causing a subsequent NAPI poll to retry the same WQE. Th...
