In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pfcp: Destroy device along with udp socket's netns dismantle. pfcp_newlink() links the device to a list in dev_net(dev) instead of net, where a udp tunnel socket is created. Even when net is removed, the device stays alive on dev_net(dev). Then, removing net triggers the splat below. [0] In this example, pfcp0 is created in ns2, but the udp socket is created in ns1. ip netns add ns1 ip netns add ns2 ip -n ns1 link add netns ns2 name pfcp0 type pfcp ip netns del ns1 Let's link the device to the socket's netns instead. Now, pfcp_net_exit() needs another netdev iteration to remove all pfcp devices in the netns. pfcp_dev_list is not used under RCU, so the list API is converted to the non-RCU variant. pfcp_net_
