If you upgraded this morning, then I would expect that you are okay
for now.
Per #5 in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1057843
the bug is present in kernel Debian package version 6.1.64-1. If you
are on 6.1.55-1 (current Bookworm stable per last night) you _likely_
aren't affected. If you are on 6.1.55-1 (or earlier), just hold off on
upgrades for now; and if you need to upgrade something else, take
great care for now to ensure that no Linux kernel packages get
upgraded to any version < 6.1.66, and preferably not < 6.1.66-1.
For versions, check:
* uname -v
* dpkg -l linux-image-\*
In that bug report thread, #21 lists 6.1.66 as fixed upstream, and #28
indicates that 6.1.66-1 includes the fix from upstream, and that it is
being published.
