Description

A flaw was found in the batman-adv module of the Linux kernel. This vulnerability occurs when the `batadv_v_elp_get_throughput()` function attempts to acquire a network lock (RTNL lock) that is already held, particularly during the cancellation of a work queue item. This can lead to a deadlock, causing a Denial of Service (DoS) for the affected system.
