The rename can fail (but\nonly on allocation failures), leaving things mixed up and hitting\nthe warning there.\n\nIgnoring it isn't great, undo the move and let the change fail\nin this case. If undo fails then WARN, then things would again\nbe stuck in two different network namespaces.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/739b7bf3942da4cde8eedb143d01a16ed865d1d7","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/96bef5667b0c4aecb1b850d2343f69b9d684abb9","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a41bd1938a9bfe226d444172a7e20e4bd5097960"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:59:28.494260111+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-98424","score":0.00207,"percentile":0.10657,"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).
