# CVE-2026-63972: linux: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: mana: Skip redundant detach on already-deta... CVE-2026-63972 is fixed in 17 products on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-63972, released July 20, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2026-63972 - Priority: High - CVSS: 7.5 (high) - EPSS: 0.0059 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Jul 19, 2026 ## Description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: mana: Skip redundant detach on already-detached port When mana_per_port_queue_reset_work_handler() runs after a previous detach succeeded but attach failed, the port is left in a detached state with apc->tx_qp and apc->rxqs already freed. Calling mana_detach() again unconditionally leads to NULL pointer dereferences during queue teardown. Add an early exit in mana_detach() when the port is already in detached state (!netif_device_present) for non-close callers, making it safe to call idempotently. This allows the queue reset handler and other recovery paths to simply retry mana_attach() without redundant teardown. ## Where it's fixed | Platform | Product | Fixed in | Fix | Released |
