The\nnetdevice notifier shuts down the socket before calling kthread_stop(), so\nthe task_struct can be freed before kthread_stop() gets its reference.\n\nCreate the listener in a stopped state and hold an extra task_struct\nreference until kthread_stop_put() completes. Also stop and release\nlisteners before freeing their interface records during TCP teardown.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/40581f10c1e56238b157af5f260b8f9518a0cbc1","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a506290f59e1c6ce9ac0a13158640bb8fee93471"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:56:02.509636177+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-98112","score":0.0012,"percentile":0.01839,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
