Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

Linux kernel是美国Linux基金会开源的一个操作系统内核。 Linux kernel存在安全漏洞，该漏洞源于在netdev-genl中报告NAPI线程PID时未将其转换至调用者的PID命名空间，可能导致子PID命名空间中的调用者获取到全局PID信息。

Vulnerability Title
netdev-genl: report NAPI thread PID in the caller's pid namespace
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netdev-genl: report NAPI thread PID in the caller's pid namespace netdev_nl_napi_fill_one() reports the NAPI kthread PID in NETDEV_A_NAPI_PID using task_pid_nr(), which returns the PID in the initial pid namespace. NETDEV_CMD_NAPI_GET does not have GENL_ADMIN_PERM and the netdev genl family is netnsok, so a caller in a child pid namespace can issue it. That caller then sees the kthread's global PID, even though the kthread is not visible in its pid namespace, where the value should be 0. Translate the PID through the caller's pid namespace, the same way commit 3799c2570982 ("io_uring/fdinfo: translate SqThread PID through caller's pid_ns") did for the io_uring SQPOLL thread. The doit and dumpit paths both run synchronously in the caller's context, so task_active_pid_ns(current) is the caller's pid namespace.
