Ubuntu Security Notice USN-7021-2
September 23, 2024

linux-ibm-5.15, linux-oracle-5.15, linux-xilinx-zynqmp vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.

Software Description:
- linux-xilinx-zynqmp: Linux kernel for Xilinx ZynqMP processors
- linux-ibm-5.15: Linux kernel for IBM cloud systems
- linux-oracle-5.15: Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud systems

Details:

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:
  - GPU drivers;
  - BTRFS file system;
  - F2FS file system;
  - GFS2 file system;
  - BPF subsystem;
  - Netfilter;
  - RxRPC session sockets;
  - Integrity Measurement Architecture(IMA) framework;
(CVE-2024-27012, CVE-2024-39496, CVE-2024-26677, CVE-2024-42228,
CVE-2024-38570, CVE-2024-39494, CVE-2024-42160, CVE-2024-41009)

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
  linux-image-5.15.0-1036-xilinx-zynqmp  5.15.0-1036.40
  linux-image-xilinx-zynqmp       5.15.0.1036.40

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
  linux-image-5.15.0-1063-ibm     5.15.0-1063.66~20.04.1
  linux-image-5.15.0-1068-oracle  5.15.0-1068.74~20.04.1
  linux-image-ibm                 5.15.0.1063.66~20.04.1
  linux-image-oracle              5.15.0.1068.74~20.04.1

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.
