Summary
CVE-2026-31678 affecting package kernel for versions less than 6.6.134.1-2
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

openvswitch: defer tunnel netdev_put to RCU release

ovs_netdev_tunnel_destroy() may run after NETDEV_UNREGISTER already detached the device. Dropping the netdev reference in destroy can race with concurrent readers that still observe vport->dev.

Do not release vport->dev in ovs_netdev_tunnel_destroy(). Instead, let vport_netdev_free() drop the reference from the RCU callback, matching the non-tunnel destroy path and avoiding additional synchronization under RTNL.
