CVE-2026-74718

Linux kernel

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: devlink: fix net namespace reference leak in reload devlink_nl_reload_doit() calls devlink_netns_get(), which returns a net with a held reference.

Add the missing put_net() on this error path.
