In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5e: Avoid unregistering PSP twice PSP is unregistered twice in: _mlx5e_remove -> mlx5e_psp_unregister mlx5e_nic_cleanup -> mlx5e_psp_unregister This leads to a refcount underflow in some conditions: ------------[ cut here ]------------ refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
