Machine-written summary

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

The Linux kernel iommu/msm driver, from version 4.11 until fixed, can leave a dangling list entry when probe fails during registration, which later list walks may dereference. The source gives few details on how an attacker would reach this. Upgrade to 6.1.191, 6.6.160, 6.12.112, 6.18.50, or a later release in those series.
