In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: Reload only IB representors upon lag disable/enable
On lag disable, the bond IB device along with all of its
representors are destroyed, and then the slaves' representors get reloaded.
In case the slave IB representor load fails, the eswitch error flow
unloads all representors, including ethernet representors, where the
netdevs get detached and removed from lag bond. Such flow is inaccurate
as the lag driver is not responsible for loading/unloading ethernet
representors. Furthermore, the flow described above begins by holding
lag lock to prevent bond changes during disable flow. However, when
reaching the ethernet representors detachment from lag, the lag lock is
required again, triggering the following deadlock:

FAQ: Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?
One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If impact to additional products is identified, we will update the CVE to reflect this.
