CVE-2026-98966In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

We need to release the reference on the old BPF prog,...
Executive summaryThe advisory describes a resource leak in the Linux kernel's bonding driver, where BPF programs attached through XDP were not released when the XDP program was replaced. Over time, leaked programs could accumulate on affected systems. The advisory does not state a severity rating, and the fix is a committed kernel patch that corrects the reference handling. Technical summaryThis is a reference-counting resource leak in the bonding driver's bond_xdp_set function, where the reference on the old BPF program was not released when the program was replaced or removed. The advisory does not describe an attack vector, privileges required, or any memory corruption or code execution impact. The patch changes the logic so the old program is released whenever one exists, and it adjusts the static branch counter for the transitions from no program to a program and from a program to none. The advisory names Fixes commits 9e2ee5c7e7c3 and 6d5f1ef83868, but it does not state affected or fixed kernel version numbers. Workarounds, exploitation status, CVSS score, and detection guidance are not stated. Summaries are generated by AI from the linked advisory text. Confirm versions and fixes at the source.
