Vulnerability Insight: Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use- after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-47233)
Sander Wiebing, Alvise de Faveri Tron, Herbert Bos, and Cristiano Giuffrida discovered that the Linux kernel mitigations for the initial Branch History Injection vulnerability (CVE-2022-0001) were insufficient for Intel processors. A local attacker could potentially use this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2024-2201)
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: - Hardware random number generator core, - Ext4 file system, - JFS file system, - Bluetooth subsystem, - Networking core, - IPv4 networking, - Logical Link layer, - Netlink, - Tomoyo security module, (CVE-2024-26704, CVE-2023-52615, CVE-2024-26805, CVE-2023-52604, CVE-2024-26614, CVE-2023-52602, CVE-2024-26635, CVE-2024-26622, CVE-2023-52601, CVE-2024-26801)
Affected Software/OS: 'linux, linux-aws, linux-aws-6.5, linux-azure, linux-azure-6.5, linux-gcp, linux-gcp-6.5, linux-hwe-6.5, linux-laptop, linux-lowlatency, linux-lowlatency-hwe-6.5, linux-nvidia-6.5, linux-oem-6.5, linux-oracle, linux-oracle-6.5, linux-raspi, linux-starfive, linux-starfive-6.5' package(s) on Ubuntu 22.04, Ubuntu 23.10.
Solution: Please install the updated package(s).
