Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
Software Description:
- linux-azure: Linux kernel for Microsoft Azure Cloud systems
- linux-azure-nvidia: Linux kernel for Microsoft Azure Cloud systems, N-Series
- linux-azure-6.8: Linux kernel for Microsoft Azure 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:
- ARM64 architecture;
- PowerPC architecture;
- S390 architecture;
- x86 architecture;
- Block layer subsystem;
- Serial ATA and Parallel ATA drivers;
- Drivers core;
- Network block device driver;
- Character device driver;
- TPM device driver;
- Clock framework and drivers;
- FireWire subsystem;
- GPIO subsystem;
- GPU drivers;
- HID subsystem;
- I3C subsystem;
- InfiniBand drivers;
- Input Device (Mouse) drivers;
- IOMMU sub...
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS linux-image-6.8.0-1022-azure-nvidia 6.8.0-1022.23 linux-image-6.8.0-1034-azure 6.8.0-1034.39 linux-image-6.8.0-1034-azure-fde 6.8.0-1034.39 linux-image-azure-6.8 6.8.0-1034.39 linux-image-azure-fde-6.8 6.8.0-1034.39 linux-image-azure-fde-lts-24.04 6.8.0-1034.39 linux-image-azure-lts-24.04 6.8.0-1034.39 linux-image-azure-nvidia 6.8.0-1022.23 linux-image-azure-nvidia-6.8 6.8.0-1022.23 linux-image-azure-nvidia-lts-24.04 6.8.0-1022.23 Ubuntu 22.04 LTS linux-image-6.8.0-1034-azure 6.8.0-1034.39~22.04.1 linux-image-6.8.0-1034-azure-fde 6.8.0-1034.39~22.04.1 linux-image-azure 6.8.0-1034.39~22.04.1 linux-image-azure-6.8 6.8.0-1034.39~22.04.1 linux-image-azure-fde 6.8.0-1034.39~22.04.1 linux-image-azure-fde-6.8 6.8.0-1034.39~22.04.1 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.
