Let's not unbind, just propagate the error to the user.\nThis is the typical way of handling genlmsg_reply() failures.\nThey shouldn't happen unless user does something silly like\ncalling the kernel with an already-full rcvbuf.","published":"2026-06-25T09:16:41.000Z","lastModified":"2026-07-07T23:46:32.000Z","status":"Analyzed","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":7.8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-415"],"affected":["linux/linux kernel"],"epss":{"score":0.00175,"percentile":0.06973,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.18%).
