I’m a bit surprised they did not wait till a patch was available for the major distros. Smells like an IPO or the next round of funding is coming soon.
You probably want to keep a close eye on any system you maintain where unprivileged users have shell access and update as soon as possible.

@DerMolly Apparently the patch was published a week ago on linux-cve-announce: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-cve-announce/2026042214-CVE-2026-31431-3d65@gregkh/T/#u I don't think there is still any coordinated disclosure going on for vulnerabilities reported directly to the kernel security team?
