In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Take RTNL lock when needed before calling xdp_set_features()
Hold RTNL lock when calling xdp_set_features() with a registered netdev,
as the call triggers the netdev notifiers. This could happen when
switching from uplink rep to nic profile for example.
This resolves the following call trace:
