Precisely what you expect without 50 Ohm termination.

Risetime meets and betters the 7ns spec and the overshoot is the result mismatched termination on the SDG which BTW always has a 50 Ohm source impedance.

Where is the mismatch???

50 Ohm source to 10x probe.

The source is it's own termination, there's no need to add another when there's no transmission line.  I don't know the exact distance between the 50R pad in the SDG and the end of the BNC connector, but λ/4 would be in the GHz range for the likely distances of a few cm.  You can add a 50R pass-thru to make it a 25R output if you like, but there's still a distance between that 50R and the terminators BNC connector....
