Software Description:

Details:

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.

  - Microsoft Azure Network Adapter (MANA) driver;

(CVE-2024-35864, CVE-2024-56658, CVE-2024-57798, CVE-2024-42069,
CVE-2024-26928)

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
  linux-image-5.15.0-1086-azure   5.15.0-1086.95
  linux-image-5.15.0-1086-azure-fde  5.15.0-1086.95.1
  linux-image-azure-fde-lts-22.04  5.15.0.1086.95.63
  linux-image-azure-lts-22.04     5.15.0.1086.84

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.
