Ubuntu 3206-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities
Summary
Update Instructions
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS: linux-image-3.2.0-123-generic 3.2.0-123.166 linux-image-3.2.0-123-generic-pae 3.2.0-123.166 linux-image-3.2.0-123-highbank 3.2.0-123.166 linux-image-3.2.0-123-omap 3.2.0-123.166 linux-image-3.2.0-123-powerpc-smp 3.2.0-123.166 linux-image-3.2.0-123-powerpc64-smp 3.2.0-123.166 linux-image-3.2.0-123-virtual 3.2.0-123.166 linux-image-3.2.0-1501-omap4 3.2.0-1501.128 linux-image-generic 3.2.0.123.138 linux-image-generic-pae 3.2.0.123.138 linux-image-highbank 3.2.0.123.138 linux-image-omap 3.2.0.123.138 linux-image-omap4 3.2.0.1501.96 linux-image-powerpc-smp 3.2.0.123.138 linux-image-powerpc64-smp 3.2.0.123.138 linux-image-virtual 3.2.0.123.138 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.
