Machine-written summary

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

Linux kernel cgroup/cpuset is affected from 6.5 and from several earlier commits, with fixes in the stable branches 6.1.191, 6.6.160, 6.12.110 and 6.18.52 and in later mainline. The source describes a race where the nr_deadline_tasks counter can be updated concurrently under different locks and become corrupted, which can lead to incorrect scheduler behaviour. The source gives few details on the attack conditions or impact. Upgrade to a fixed kernel version for your branch.
