# CVE-2026-74523

> 7.5 HIGH

## Beschreibung

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

qede: sync udp_tunnel ports outside qede_lock in the recovery path

A TX timeout on a qede NIC that has VXLAN/GENEVE tunnel ports
configured wedges the rtnetlink control plane of the whole machine:

  NETDEV WATCHDOG: ens6f1 (qede): transmit queue 2 timed out 10226 ms
  [qede_tx_timeout:586(ens6f1)]TX timeout on queue 2!
  [qede_recovery_handler:2665(ens6f0)]Starting a recovery process

The recovery path deadlocks on the driver's own mutex:

  qede_sp_task
   rtnl_lock()
   mutex_lock(&edev->qede_lock)        sync_table == qede_udp_tunnel_sync
       mutex_lock(&edev->qede_lock)
