Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
The Linux kernel from 5.8 up to the fixed releases is affected, in the s390 PCI hotplug slot reset path. The source gives few details on what an attacker needs, but says that resetting one function on a multifunction device can reset the wrong function and that memory is leaked. Upgrade to 6.1.191, 6.6.160, 6.12.112, 6.18.52, or a later release in those series.
