========================================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-7169-1 December 17, 2024
linux, linux-lowlatency, linux-oracle vulnerabilities ========================================================================== A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 24.10 Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel. Software Description: - linux: Linux kernel - linux-lowlatency: Linux low latency kernel - linux-oracle: Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud systems Details: Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - Ext4 file system; - Network traffic control; - VMware vSockets driver; (CVE-2024-49967, CVE-2024-53057, CVE-2024-50264) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 24.10 linux-image-6.11.0-1007-lowlatency 6.11.0-1007.7 linux-image-6.11.0-1007-lowlatency-64k 6.11.0-1007.7 linux-image-6.11.0-1009-oracle 6.11.0-1009.9 linux-image-6.11.0-1009-oracle-64k 6.11.0-1009.9 linux-image-6.11.0-13-generic 6.11.0-13.14 linux-image-6.11.0-13-generic-64k 6.11.0-13.14 linux-image-generic 6.11.0-13.14 linux-image-generic-64k 6.11.0-13.14 linux-image-generic-64k-hwe-24.04 6.11.0-13.14 linux-image-generic-hwe-24.04 6.11.0-13.14 linux-image-lowlatency 6.11.0-1007.7 linux-image-lowlatency-64k 6.11.0-1007.7 linux-image-oem-24.04 6.11.0-13.14 linux-image-oem-24.04a 6.11.0-13.14 linux-image-oracle 6.11.0-1009.9 linux-image-oracle-64k 6.11.0-1009.9 linux-image-virtual 6.11.0-13.14 linux-image-virtual-hwe-24.04 6.11.0-13.14 After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes. ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic, linux-generic-lts-RELEASE, linux-virtual, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform this as well.
