CVE-2026-74684

This vulnerability is a NULL pointer dereference in the Linux kernel's net: tap module, specifically in tap_get_user_xdp(). When the vhost TX path passes an XDP buffer containing a GSO virtio-net header with the protocol field set to zero, tun_vnet_hdr_to_skb() can reach dev_parse_header_protocol...
