Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

在 Linux 内核中，已修复以下漏洞： amt：不支持跨 netns（命名空间）配置。 当底层设备（lower device）被注销（unregister）时， 会尝试注销其上层 AMT 设备，但存在两个问题： 1. 仅在底层设备所在的网络命名空间（netns）中查找上层设备。 2. 每次仅注销一个上层设备。 如果 AMT 设备是在另一个网络命名空间中的底层设备上创建的，那么当该底层设备被移除时，会触发以下内核告警（splat），并导致系统卡住，直到所有上层设备都被移除。[0] 考虑到上述第 1 点以及以下事实，

Vulnerability Title
amt: Don't support cross-netns setup.
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: amt: Don't support cross-netns setup. When a lower device is unregistered, amt_device_event() tries to unregister its upper AMT device, but it has two problems. 1. amt_lookup_upper_dev() looks up an upper device in the lower device's netns only 2. amt_device_event() unregisters a single upper device only If AMT device is created on a lower device in another netns, removing the lower device triggers the splat below and gets stuck until all upper devices are removed. [0] The cross-netns setup seems unintentional considering 1. and the following points: * amt_link_setup() sets dev->netns_immutable to true * skb_scrub_packet() is not called in the fast path * iproute2 binary fails to find cross-netns lower device via link-netns: # ip -n ns1 link add amt0 link-netns ns2 type amt dev veth1 Cannot find device "veth1" Instead of supporting it properly and preparing for per-netns netdev unreg, let's forbid cross-netns setup. Note that the problem 2. needs a separate fix.
