Machine-written summary

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

Linux kernel versions from 4.3 until the fix are affected. When TTY device registration fails before a cdev is allocated, later removal of the port causes a NULL-pointer dereference in cdev_del(). The source gives few details on what triggers this or who can trigger it. Upgrade to 6.1.191, 6.6.160, 6.12.114, 6.18.57, or a later release in those series.
