========================================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5691-1 October 19, 2022 linux, linux-aws, linux-aws-5.4, linux-azure, linux-azure-5.4, linux-bluefield, linux-gcp, linux-gcp-5.4, linux-gke, linux-gkeop, linux-hwe-5.4, linux-ibm, linux-ibm-5.4, linux-kvm, linux-oracle, linux-oracle-5.4, linux-raspi, linux-raspi-5.4 vulnerabilities ========================================================================== A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 20.04 LTS - Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel. 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-bluefield: Linux kernel for NVIDIA BlueField platforms - linux-gcp: Linux kernel for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) systems - linux-gke: Linux kernel for Google Container Engine (GKE) systems - linux-gkeop: Linux kernel for Google Container Engine (GKE) systems - linux-ibm: Linux kernel for IBM cloud systems - linux-kvm: Linux kernel for cloud environments - linux-oracle: Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud systems - linux-raspi: Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi systems - linux-aws-5.4: Linux kernel for Amazon Web Services (AWS) systems - linux-azure-5.4: Linux kernel for Microsoft Azure cloud systems - linux-gcp-5.4: Linux kernel for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) systems - linux-hwe-5.4: Linux hardware enablement (HWE) kernel - linux-ibm-5.4: Linux kernel for IBM cloud systems - linux-oracle-5.4: Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud systems - linux-raspi-5.4: Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi systems Details: David Bouman and Billy Jheng Bing Jhong discovered that a race condition existed in the io_uring subsystem in the Linux kernel, leading to a use- after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-2602) Sönke Huster discovered that an integer overflow vulnerability existed in the WiFi driver stack in the Linux kernel, leading to a buffer overflow. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-41674) Sönke Huster discovered that the WiFi driver stack in the Linux kernel did not properly perform reference counting in some situations, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2022-42720) Sönke Huster discovered that the WiFi driver stack in the Linux kernel did not properly handle BSSID/SSID lists in some situations. A physically proximate attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (infinite loop). (CVE-2022-42721) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS: linux-image-5.4.0-1036-ibm 5.4.0-1036.41 linux-image-5.4.0-1049-bluefield 5.4.0-1049.55 linux-image-5.4.0-1056-gkeop 5.4.0-1056.60 linux-image-5.4.0-1073-raspi 5.4.0-1073.84 linux-image-5.4.0-1078-kvm 5.4.0-1078.84 linux-image-5.4.0-1086-gke 5.4.0-1086.93 linux-image-5.4.0-1086-oracle 5.4.0-1086.95 linux-image-5.4.0-1088-aws 5.4.0-1088.96 linux-image-5.4.0-1092-gcp 5.4.0-1092.101 linux-image-5.4.0-1094-azure 5.4.0-1094.100 linux-image-5.4.0-131-generic 5.4.0-131.147 linux-image-5.4.0-131-generic-lpae 5.4.0-131.147 linux-image-5.4.0-131-lowlatency 5.4.0-131.147 linux-image-aws-lts-20.04 5.4.0.1088.87 linux-image-azure-lts-20.04 5.4.0.1094.90 linux-image-bluefield 5.4.0.1049.47 linux-image-gcp-lts-20.04 5.4.0.1092.96 linux-image-generic 5.4.0.131.131 linux-image-generic-lpae 5.4.0.131.131 linux-image-gke 5.4.0.1086.93 linux-image-gke-5.4 5.4.0.1086.93 linux-image-gkeop 5.4.0.1056.56 linux-image-gkeop-5.4 5.4.0.1056.56 linux-image-ibm 5.4.0.1036.64 linux-image-ibm-lts-20.04 5.4.0.1036.64 linux-image-kvm 5.4.0.1078.74 linux-image-lowlatency 5.4.0.131.131 linux-image-oem 5.4.0.131.131 linux-image-oem-osp1 5.4.0.131.131 linux-image-oracle-lts-20.04 5.4.0.1086.82 linux-image-raspi 5.4.0.1073.105 linux-image-raspi2 5.4.0.1073.105 linux-image-virtual 5.4.0.131.131 Ubuntu 18.04 LTS: linux-image-5.4.0-1036-ibm 5.4.0-1036.41~18.04.1 linux-image-5.4.0-1073-raspi 5.4.0-1073.84~18.04.1 linux-image-5.4.0-1086-oracle 5.4.0-1086.95~18.04.1 linux-image-5.4.0-1088-aws 5.4.0-1088.96~18.04.1 linux-image-5.4.0-1092-gcp 5.4.0-1092.101~18.04.1 linux-image-5.4.0-1094-azure 5.4.0-1094.100~18.04.1 linux-image-5.4.0-131-generic 5.4.0-131.147~18.04.1 linux-image-5.4.0-131-generic-lpae 5.4.0-131.147~18.04.1 linux-image-5.4.0-131-lowlatency 5.4.0-131.147~18.04.1 linux-image-aws 5.4.0.1088.67 linux-image-azure 5.4.0.1094.70 linux-image-gcp 5.4.0.1092.70 linux-image-generic-hwe-18.04 5.4.0.131.147~18.04.108 linux-image-generic-lpae-hwe-18.04 5.4.0.131.147~18.04.108 linux-image-ibm 5.4.0.1036.49 linux-image-lowlatency-hwe-18.04 5.4.0.131.147~18.04.108 linux-image-oem 5.4.0.131.147~18.04.108 linux-image-oem-osp1 5.4.0.131.147~18.04.108 linux-image-oracle 5.4.0.1086.95~18.04.62 linux-image-raspi-hwe-18.04 5.4.0.1073.72 linux-image-snapdragon-hwe-18.04 5.4.0.131.147~18.04.108 linux-image-virtual-hwe-18.04 5.4.0.131.147~18.04.108 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.
