Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.

Summary

Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.

Software Description:

- linux-raspi: Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi systems

Details:

It was discovered that the JFS file system contained an out-of-bounds read

vulnerability when printing xattr debug information. A local attacker could

use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2024-40902)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.

An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.

This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:

- PowerPC architecture;

- x86 architecture;

- ACPI drivers;

- Serial ATA and Parallel ATA drivers;

- Drivers core;

- GPIO subsystem;

- GPU drivers;

Update Instructions

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

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
  linux-image-5.4.0-1116-raspi    5.4.0-1116.128
  linux-image-raspi               5.4.0.1116.146
  linux-image-raspi-hwe-18.04     5.4.0.1116.146
  linux-image-raspi2              5.4.0.1116.146
  linux-image-raspi2-hwe-18.04    5.4.0.1116.146

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.
