Ubuntu 24.04 LTS USN-6878-1 Critical: Oracle Linux Kernel Issues

ubuntu
Calendar Grey July 4, 2024
Dist Ubuntu Esm H88
New information regarding security flaws in the Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud running on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS has been released. Urgent security alerts have been published.
Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.

Summary

Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.

Software Description:

- linux-oracle: Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud systems

Details:

Ziming Zhang discovered that the DRM driver for VMware Virtual GPU did not

properly handle certain error conditions, leading to a NULL pointer

dereference. A local attacker could possibly trigger this vulnerability to

cause a denial of service. (CVE-2022-38096)

Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux

kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use-

after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly

use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-47233)

It was discovered that the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver in the Linux

kernel contained a race condition, leading to a use-after-free

vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or

possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-6270)

It was discover...

Update Instructions

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
   linux-image-6.8.0-1006-oracle   6.8.0-1006.6
   linux-image-6.8.0-1006-oracle-64k  6.8.0-1006.6
   linux-image-oracle              6.8.0-1006.6
   linux-image-oracle-64k          6.8.0-1006.6

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.
