Critical updates for Ubuntu USN-7088-5 addressing linux kernel issues affecting Raspberry Pi systems.
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

- linux-raspi-5.4: Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi systems

Details:

Ziming Zhang discovered that the VMware Virtual GPU DRM driver in the

Linux kernel contained an integer overflow vulnerability. A local

attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).

(CVE-2022-36402)

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:

- ARM64 architecture;

- PowerPC architecture;

- User-Mode Linux (UML);

- x86 architecture;

- Block layer subsystem;

- Cryptographic API;

- Android drivers;

- Serial ATA and Parallel ATA drivers;

- ATM drivers;

- Drivers core;

- CPU frequency scaling framework;

- Device frequency scaling framework;

- GPU drivers;

- HID subsystem;

- Hardware monitoring drivers;

Update Instructions

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

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
  linux-image-5.4.0-1119-raspi    5.4.0-1119.131
  linux-image-raspi               5.4.0.1119.149
  linux-image-raspi2              5.4.0.1119.149

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
  linux-image-5.4.0-1119-raspi    5.4.0-1119.131~18.04.1
				  Available with Ubuntu Pro
  linux-image-raspi-hwe-18.04     5.4.0.1119.131~18.04.1
				  Available with Ubuntu Pro

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.
