This misses devlink instances that get a nested\nrelation before registration and then fail probe before devl_register() is\nreached.\n\nThat flow can happen for SFs. The child devlink gets linked to its\nparent before registration, then a later probe error calls devlink_free()\ndirectly. Since the instance was never registered, devl_unregister() is not\ncalled and devlink->rel is leaked.\n\nRelease any pending relation from devlink_free() as well. The registered\npath is unchanged because devl_unregister() already clears devlink->rel\nbefore devlink_free() runs."}], "lastModified": "2026-07-08T15:17:32.770", "configurations": [{"nodes": [{"negate": false, "cpeMatch": [{"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "85421C0C-ABDE-4357-971C-67F9087DE1B9", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.94", "versionStartIncluding": "6.7"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "389025D2-958D-41BD-BD96-70ED1033A9F3", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.36", "versionStartIncluding": "6.13"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "6A64BF9F-3BCA-42FD-98CB-8F03474D2B1E", "versionEndExcluding": "7.0.13", "versionStartIncluding": "6.19"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:7.1:rc1:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "B1EF7059-E670-45F4-B422-54C40FA86390"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:7.1:rc2:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "0D38F0BF-A728-4133-A358-D44A2F7EE6D6"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:7.1:rc3:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "EC732D08-5F7B-46D9-B154-E60C7F4F0A97"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:7.1:rc4:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "E5910A9D-F60A-409A-B486-FE66BFEBA9B9"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:7.1:rc5:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "81DFF19E-9CF8-49C6-8C36-1E4038622933"}, {"criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:7.1:rc6:*:*:*:*:*:*", "vulnerable": true, "matchCriteriaId": "B0E8FC71-3952-444C-83E9-718DBBBEC615"}], "operator": "OR"}]}], "sourceIdentifier": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67"}
