Ubuntu 3901-2: Linux kernel (HWE) vulnerabilities
Summary
Update Instructions
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS: linux-image-4.15.0-1009-oracle 4.15.0-1009.11~16.04.1 linux-image-4.15.0-1028-gcp 4.15.0-1028.29~16.04.1 linux-image-4.15.0-1033-aws 4.15.0-1033.35~16.04.1 linux-image-4.15.0-1040-azure 4.15.0-1040.44 linux-image-4.15.0-46-generic 4.15.0-46.49~16.04.1 linux-image-4.15.0-46-generic-lpae 4.15.0-46.49~16.04.1 linux-image-4.15.0-46-lowlatency 4.15.0-46.49~16.04.1 linux-image-aws-hwe 4.15.0.1033.34 linux-image-azure 4.15.0.1040.44 linux-image-gcp 4.15.0.1028.42 linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 4.15.0.46.67 linux-image-generic-lpae-hwe-16.04 4.15.0.46.67 linux-image-gke 4.15.0.1028.42 linux-image-lowlatency-hwe-16.04 4.15.0.46.67 linux-image-oem 4.15.0.46.67 linux-image-oracle 4.15.0.1009.3 Ubuntu 14.04 LTS: linux-image-4.15.0-1040-azure 4.15.0-1040.44~14.04.1 linux-image-azure 4.15.0.1040.27 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.
