    Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that     may lead to a privilege escalation, denial of service or information     leaks.

    For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in     version 6.1.99-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your linux packages.
