========================================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-7550-5 June 05, 2025
linux-nvidia vulnerabilities ========================================================================== A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel. Software Description: - linux-nvidia: Linux kernel for NVIDIA 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: - GPU drivers; - Sun RPC protocol; (CVE-2024-56608, CVE-2024-56551, CVE-2024-53168) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS linux-image-5.15.0-1079-nvidia 5.15.0-1079.80 linux-image-5.15.0-1079-nvidia-lowlatency 5.15.0-1079.80 linux-image-nvidia 5.15.0.1079.79 linux-image-nvidia-lowlatency 5.15.0.1079.79 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.
