Machine-written summary

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

The Linux kernel's sunrpc subsystem is affected in versions from 6.7 onward, with fixes in several stable branches (6.1.191, 6.6.160, 6.12.111, 6.18.50 and later point releases). A use-after-free can occur after a late pipefs mount or a remount, when stale superblock state leaves pipefs entries pointing at a freed RPC client. The source gives few details on the attacker's access requirements or impact. Upgrade to a fixed kernel version for your branch; no workaround is listed.
