Ubuntu 5266-1: Linux kernel (GKE) vulnerabilities
Summary
Update Instructions
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS: linux-image-5.4.0-1061-gke 5.4.0-1061.64 linux-image-gke 5.4.0.1061.71 linux-image-gke-5.4 5.4.0.1061.71 Ubuntu 18.04 LTS: linux-image-5.4.0-1061-gke 5.4.0-1061.64~18.04.1 linux-image-gke-5.4 5.4.0.1061.64~18.04.25 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.
