Summary

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 24.04 LTS Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel. Software Description: - linux-gcp: Linux kernel for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) systems - linux-gke: Linux kernel for Google Container Engine (GKE) systems - linux-gkeop: Linux kernel for Google Container Engine (GKE) 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: - ARM64 architecture; - MIPS architecture; - PowerPC architecture; - RISC-V architecture; - S390 architecture; - SuperH RISC architecture; - User-Mode Linux (UML); - x86 architecture; - Block layer subsystem; - Cryptographic API; - Compute Acceleration Framework; - ACPI drivers; - Drivers core; - RAM backed block device driver; - Compressed RAM block device driver; - TPM device driver; ...

Update Instructions

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS linux-image-6.8.0-1010-gkeop 6.8.0-1010.12 linux-image-6.8.0-1023-gke 6.8.0-1023.27 linux-image-6.8.0-1028-gcp 6.8.0-1028.30 linux-image-6.8.0-1028-gcp-64k 6.8.0-1028.30 linux-image-gcp-64k-lts-24.04 6.8.0-1028.30 linux-image-gcp-lts-24.04 6.8.0-1028.30 linux-image-gke 6.8.0-1023.27 linux-image-gkeop 6.8.0-1010.12 linux-image-gkeop-6.8 6.8.0-1010.12 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.
