Machine-written summary

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

Linux kernel versions from 5.17 until their fixes have a use-after-free in the nfsd NFS server's file cache teardown, where a freed structure can still be used by background callbacks. The source gives few details on what an attacker needs to trigger it or what they can do. Upgrade to 6.1.191, 6.6.160, 6.12.114, or 6.18.51 in the matching series, or to a later kernel that includes the fix.

Written 12 Nov 2026.
