FYI, there are bugfixes such as ("rxrpc: Fix conn-level packet handling to unshare RESPONSE packets")
affect the 6.1.y kernel, and the final goal is clean apply fixes for CVE-2026-43500 such as
("rxrpc: Also unshare DATA/RESPONSE packets when paged frags are present") in maillist.

NO, just affected by compiled kernel which enabled the config:(,
we are preparing fix such as disable AFS and AF_RXRPC or fix it...
