      <title>CVE-2026-74735 — l2tp: fix tunnel and session refcount leak on seq_file release</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-74735</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;l2tp: fix tunnel and session refcount leak on seq_file release&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In pppol2tp_proc_open() and l2tp_dfs_seq_open(), iteration state
(pd-&amp;gt;tunnel and pd-&amp;gt;session) is kept in seq_file private data to allow
iteration across multiple read() system calls.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, if userspace closes /proc/net/pppol2tp or /sys/kernel/debug/l2tp/tunnels
before reading to end-of-file (EOF), any tunnel or session reference stored in
pd-&amp;gt;tunnel / pd-&amp;gt;session is left un-dropped when seq_file private data is freed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fix this by dropping any remaining pd-&amp;gt;tunnel and pd-&amp;gt;session references in
pppol2tp_proc_release() and l2tp_dfs_seq_release() when closing the file.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
