The primary source, which says keep the dirtyfrag mitigations in place, is https://github.com/v12-security/pocs/tree/main/fragnesia

Lots of privilege escalations these days. But are there that many multiuser Linux systems nowadays ? I'm under the impression the whole landscape is either servers or single-user desktops (and ofc Android phones).

At what point do we all start rolling our own microkernels? This is kind of getting silly now... 4 now in the past month?

Sounds like this one is in the same kernel modules as dirtyfrag, so the existing mitigations (if in place) are sufficient.
