Linux · Linux Kernel · CVE-2026-43234
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
**Description**
An issue exists in the team driver where a `NETDEV CHANGEMTU` event is triggered during the unregistration of a slave. This can lead to a situation where the system waits for a network device to become free due to an incorrect usage count, potentially causing a system hang or crash. The problem is triggered during the execution of functions such as `team port del()`, `team del slave()`, and `team device event()`, which eventually call `dev set mtu()` and trigger the MTU change notification while the device is being unregistered.
**Recommendations**
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
