linux-oem-6.8 vulnerabilities ========================================================================== A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel. Software Description: - linux-oem-6.8: Linux kernel for OEM 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: - Network drivers; - Netfilter; - Network traffic control; - VMware vSockets driver; (CVE-2024-47715, CVE-2024-53103, CVE-2024-53164, CVE-2024-53141) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS linux-image-6.8.0-1020-oem 6.8.0-1020.20 linux-image-oem-24.04 6.8.0-1020.20 linux-image-oem-24.04a 6.8.0-1020.20 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.
