Machine-written summary

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

The Linux kernel trusted keys code is affected by a use-after-free caused by the wrong teardown order in trusted_tpm_exit(). A race between adding a trusted key and removing the module can let the kernel read freed memory, and the source does not state what privileges an attacker needs. Upgrade to Linux 5.10.273, 5.15.224, 6.1.191, 6.6.160, or a later release in those branches.

Written 12 Nov 2026.
