Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The Linux kernel ntb driver is affected from 4.20 until fixed, because it modifies the DMA address it stored and later passes a handle that differs from the one the allocation returned. The source gives few details on what an attacker could do with this. Upgrade to a fixed kernel, such as 6.1.191, 6.6.160, 6.12.114, 6.18.57 or a later release in those series.
