Content-Disposition: inline ==========================================================================Ubuntu Security Notice USN-2731-1 September 03, 2015 linux vulnerability ========================================================================== A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Summary: The system could be made to expose sensitive information. Software Description: - linux: Linux kernel Details: Benjamin Randazzo discovered an information leak in the md (multiple device) driver when the bitmap_info.file is disabled. A local privileged attacker could use this to obtain sensitive information from the kernel. Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS: linux-image-3.2.0-90-generic 3.2.0-90.128 linux-image-3.2.0-90-generic-pae 3.2.0-90.128 linux-image-3.2.0-90-highbank 3.2.0-90.128 linux-image-3.2.0-90-omap 3.2.0-90.128 linux-image-3.2.0-90-powerpc-smp 3.2.0-90.128 linux-image-3.2.0-90-powerpc64-smp 3.2.0-90.128 linux-image-3.2.0-90-virtual 3.2.0-90.128 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. If you use linux-restricted-modules, you have to update that package as well to get modules which work with the new kernel version. Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic, linux-server, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform this as well.
