Linux [5.19, 6.1) has a bug that can be triggered under certain conditions, see #1675 for more details, which might lock the whole system and require a reboot.
The fix was backported to stable kernels, 6.1 and 6.3 and it might have been backported to other kernel releases for some distributions.
The Agent will try to proactively detect kernels that might be buggy and stop running. This behaviour can be overridden with the flag mentioned in the logs. If you want to confirm whether your potentially affected kernel contains the fix or not it's best to contact your vendor.
As of the time if writing this, several distributions such as Fedora, are running more modern kernels that aren't affected.
