Ubuntu 3444-1: Linux kernel vulnerabilities
Summary
Update Instructions
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS: linux-image-4.4.0-1008-kvm 4.4.0-1008.13 linux-image-4.4.0-1032-gke 4.4.0-1032.32 linux-image-4.4.0-1038-aws 4.4.0-1038.47 linux-image-4.4.0-1075-raspi2 4.4.0-1075.83 linux-image-4.4.0-1077-snapdragon 4.4.0-1077.82 linux-image-4.4.0-97-generic 4.4.0-97.120 linux-image-4.4.0-97-generic-lpae 4.4.0-97.120 linux-image-4.4.0-97-lowlatency 4.4.0-97.120 linux-image-4.4.0-97-powerpc-e500mc 4.4.0-97.120 linux-image-4.4.0-97-powerpc-smp 4.4.0-97.120 linux-image-4.4.0-97-powerpc64-emb 4.4.0-97.120 linux-image-4.4.0-97-powerpc64-smp 4.4.0-97.120 linux-image-aws 4.4.0.1038.40 linux-image-generic 4.4.0.97.102 linux-image-generic-lpae 4.4.0.97.102 linux-image-gke 4.4.0.1032.33 linux-image-kvm 4.4.0.1008.8 linux-image-lowlatency 4.4.0.97.102 linux-image-powerpc-e500mc 4.4.0.97.102 linux-image-powerpc-smp 4.4.0.97.102 linux-image-powerpc64-emb 4.4.0.97.102 linux-image-powerpc64-smp 4.4.0.97.102 linux-image-raspi2 4.4.0.1075.75 linux-image-snapdragon 4.4.0.1077.69 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.
