It does not undo\nthe successful cpsw_register_devlink() call, leaving the devlink instance\nand its parameters registered after probe has failed.\n\nAdd a devlink cleanup label for the path where devlink registration has\nalready succeeded, and use it when port registration fails.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0a44945b0d3422f5d81b49c97e293f3e21a8c585","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2bcf21ede6b097ca96cb1f7679761acca6510555","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/43d4af5c5331ea739a49cb1097d41e502ed91ec4","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/5a5ac0defdd42e566f1c871272370b6a3a8eef5c","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8af61d5bd87fd1a3bdc81fe948e7acdc8aa5bcf0"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-26T07:33:01.631659812+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-98909","score":0.00187,"percentile":0.08198,"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).
