Detail
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Summary: USN-2908-2 introduced a regression in the Ubuntu 15.10 Linux kernel backported to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Software Description: - linux-lts-wily: Linux hardware enablement kernel from Wily for Trusty Details: USN-2908-2 fixed vulnerabilities in the Ubuntu 15.10 Linux kernel backported to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. An incorrect locking fix caused a regression that broke graphics displays for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS guests running the Ubuntu 15.10 backport kernel within VMWare virtual machines. This update fixes the problem. We apologize for the inconvenience. Original advisory details: halfdog discovered that OverlayFS, when mounting on top of a FUSE mount, halfdog discovered that OverlayFS in the Linux kernel incorrectly It was discovered that the Linux kernel did not properly enforce rlimits It was discovered that the Linux kernel's Filesystem in Userspace (FUSE) Andy Lutomirski discovered a race condition in the Linux kernel's Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS: After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes.
