Threats tagged 'usn-8015-4'

Multiple security vulnerabilities were discovered in the Linux kernel affecting the Cryptographic API, SMB network file system, and io_uring subsystem. These flaws could potentially allow an attacker to compromise affected systems. The issues impact various Linux kernel packages for cloud platforms including AWS, GCP, IBM, and low latency kernels. Fixed versions have been released and are available for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and 24.04 LTS. Users must update to these fixed versions and reboot to apply the patches. Due to an ABI change, recompilation of third-party kernel modules is required after updating.
