Machine-written summary

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

Linux kernel nouveau driver (GEM info ioctl): a race in the non-uvmm path lets the info lookup use a VMA that the GEM close path may already have closed, causing a use-after-free. The source does not state the attacker's required access or the resulting impact beyond the use-after-free. Affected versions are listed as starting at commit e758a3111914af7ee4351be86f1ac0efe87ed06e and fixed in several stable commits; upgrade to a fixed kernel version from your distribution or the stable branch.
