      <title>CVE-2026-53323 — net: dsa: remove redundant netdev_lock_ops() from conduit ethtool ops</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-53323</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;net: dsa: remove redundant netdev_lock_ops() from conduit ethtool ops&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;DSA replaces the conduit (master) device&amp;#39;s ethtool_ops with its own
wrappers that aggregate stats from both the conduit and DSA switch
ports. Taking the lock again inside the DSA wrappers causes a deadlock.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Stumbled upon this when booting qemu with fbnic and CONFIG_NET_DSA_LOOP=y
(which looks like some kind of testing device that auto-populates the ports
of eth0). `ethtool -i` is enough to deadlock. This means we have basically zero
coverage for DSA stuff with real ops locked devs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Remove the redundant netdev_lock_ops()/netdev_unlock_ops() calls from
the DSA conduit ethtool wrappers.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
