A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's fq_pie network scheduler allows users with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to cause a denial of service via a crafted quantum value. Specifically, the fq_pie_change() function accepts any quantum value from userspace, including 1, which can cause a soft lockup due to a long spinning loop under the qdisc lock. This issue affects certain versions of the linux-hwe-edge kernel and requires specific configuration and commands to trigger.
