Several security issues were fixed in the NVIDIA graphics driver kernel modules.. =========================================================================Ubuntu Security Notice USN-4404-2 June 25, 2020 linux kernel vulnerabilities ========================================================================= A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 20.04 LTS - Ubuntu 19.10 - Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the NVIDIA graphics driver kernel modules. Software Description: - linux: Linux kernel - linux-aws: Linux kernel for Amazon Web Services (AWS) systems - linux-azure: Linux kernel for Microsoft Azure Cloud systems - linux-gcp: Linux kernel for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) systems - linux-oracle: Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud systems - linux-aws-5.3: Linux kernel for Amazon Web Services (AWS) systems - linux-azure-5.3: Linux kernel for Microsoft Azure Cloud systems - linux-gcp-5.3: Linux kernel for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) systems - linux-hwe: Linux hardware enablement (HWE) kernel - linux-oem: Linux kernel for OEM systems - linux-oem-osp1: Linux kernel for OEM systems - linux-oracle-5.3: Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud systems Details: USN-4404-1 fixed vulnerabilities in the NVIDIA graphics drivers. This update provides the corresponding updates for the NVIDIA Linux DKMS kernel modules. Original advisory details: Thomas E. Carroll discovered that the NVIDIA Cuda grpahics driver did not properly perform access control when performing IPC. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2020-5963) It was discovered that the UVM driver in the NVIDIA graphics driver contained a race condition. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2020-5967) It was discovered that the NVIDIA virtual GPU guest drivers contained an unspecified vulnerability that could potentially lead to privileged operation execution. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2020-5973) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS: linux-image-5.4.0-1017-aws 5.4.0-1017.17 linux-image-5.4.0-1018-gcp 5.4.0-1018.18 linux-image-5.4.0-1018-oracle 5.4.0-1018.18 linux-image-5.4.0-1019-azure 5.4.0-1019.19 linux-image-5.4.0-39-generic 5.4.0-39.43 linux-image-5.4.0-39-generic-lpae 5.4.0-39.43 linux-image-5.4.0-39-lowlatency 5.4.0-39.43 linux-image-aws 5.4.0.1017.18 linux-image-azure 5.4.0.1019.18 linux-image-gcp 5.4.0.1018.16 linux-image-generic 5.4.0.39.42 linux-image-generic-hwe-20.04 5.4.0.39.42 linux-image-generic-lpae 5.4.0.39.42 linux-image-generic-lpae-hwe-20.04 5.4.0.39.42 linux-image-gke 5.4.0.1018.16 linux-image-lowlatency 5.4.0.39.42 linux-image-lowlatency-hwe-20.04 5.4.0.39.42 linux-image-oem 5.4.0.39.42 linux-image-oem-osp1 5.4.0.39.42 linux-image-oracle 5.4.0.1018.16 linux-image-virtual 5.4.0.39.42 linux-image-virtual-hwe-20.04 5.4.0.39.42 Ubuntu 19.10: linux-image-5.3.0-1027-oracle 5.3.0-1027.29 linux-image-5.3.0-1028-aws 5.3.0-1028.30 linux-image-5.3.0-1029-gcp 5.3.0-1029.31 linux-image-5.3.0-61-generic 5.3.0-61.55 linux-image-5.3.0-61-generic-lpae 5.3.0-61.55 linux-image-5.3.0-61-lowlatency 5.3.0-61.55 linux-image-5.3.0-61-snapdragon 5.3.0-61.55 linux-image-aws 5.3.0.1028.38 linux-image-gcp 5.3.0.1029.39 linux-image-generic 5.3.0.61.51 linux-image-generic-lpae 5.3.0.61.51 linux-image-gke 5.3.0.1029.39 linux-image-lowlatency 5.3.0.61.51 linux-image-oracle 5.3.0.1027.42 linux-image-snapdragon 5.3.0.61.51 linux-image-virtual 5.3.0.61.51 Ubuntu 18.04 LTS: linux-image-4.15.0-1047-oracle 4.15.0-1047.51 linux-image-4.15.0-1076-aws 4.15.0-1076.80 linux-image-4.15.0-108-generic 4.15.0-108.109 linux-image-4.15.0-108-generic-lpae 4.15.0-108.109 linux-image-4.15.0-108-lowlatency 4.15.0-108.109 linux-image-4.15.0-1090-oem 4.15.0-1090.100 linux-image-5.0.0-1062-oem-osp1 5.0.0-1062.67 linux-image-5.3.0-1027-oracle 5.3.0-1027.29~18.04.1 linux-image-5.3.0-1028-aws 5.3.0-1028.30~18.04.1 linux-image-5.3.0-1029-gcp 5.3.0-1029.31~18.04.1 linux-image-5.3.0-1031-azure 5.3.0-1031.32~18.04.1 linux-image-5.3.0-61-generic 5.3.0-61.55~18.04.1 linux-image-5.3.0-61-generic-lpae 5.3.0-61.55~18.04.1 linux-image-5.3.0-61-lowlatency 5.3.0-61.55~18.04.1 linux-image-aws 5.3.0.1028.26 linux-image-aws-lts-18.04 4.15.0.1076.78 linux-image-azure 5.3.0.1031.27 linux-image-gcp 5.3.0.1029.23 linux-image-generic 4.15.0.108.96 linux-image-generic-hwe-18.04 5.3.0.61.114 linux-image-generic-lpae 4.15.0.108.96 linux-image-generic-lpae-hwe-18.04 5.3.0.61.114 linux-image-gkeop-5.3 5.3.0.61.114 linux-image-lowlatency 4.15.0.108.96 linux-image-lowlatency-hwe-18.04 5.3.0.61.114 linux-image-oem 4.15.0.1090.93 linux-image-oem-osp1 5.0.0.1062.60 linux-image-oracle 5.3.0.1027.24 linux-image-oracle-edge 5.3.0.1027.24 linux-image-oracle-lts-18.04 4.15.0.1047.56 linux-image-powerpc-e500mc 4.15.0.108.96 linux-image-powerpc-smp 4.15.0.108.96 linux-image-powerpc64-emb 4.15.0.108.96 linux-image-powerpc64-smp 4.15.0.108.96 linux-image-snapdragon-hwe-18.04 5.3.0.61.114 linux-image-virtual 4.15.0.108.96 linux-image-virtual-hwe-18.04 5.3.0.61.114 After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes.

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.

Summary: Updated mesa packages that fix multiple security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: RHEL Desktop Workstation (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, ppc, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64 3. Description: Mesa provides a 3D graphics API that is compatible with Open Graphics Library (OpenGL). It also provides hardware-accelerated drivers for many popular graphics chips. It was found that Mesa did not correctly validate messages from the X server. A malicious X server could cause an application using Mesa to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. (CVE-2013-1993) All users of Mesa are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. All running applications linked against Mesa must be restarted for this update to take effect. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This updateis available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258 5.
