Detail
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 19.10 - Ubuntu 18.04 LTS Summary: The system could be made to expose sensitive information or run programs as an administrator. 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-gcp: Linux kernel for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) systems - linux-kvm: Linux kernel for cloud environments - linux-oracle: Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud systems - linux-raspi2: Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi 2 - linux-azure-5.3: Linux kernel for Microsoft Azure Cloud systems - linux-gcp-5.3: Linux kernel for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) systems - linux-gke-5.3: Linux kernel for Google Container Engine (GKE) systems - linux-hwe: Linux hardware enablement (HWE) kernel - linux-oracle-5.3: Linux kernel buildinfo for version 5.3.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP - linux-raspi2-5.3: Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi 2 Details: Manfred Paul discovered that the bpf verifier in the Linux kernel did not properly calculate register bounds for certain operations. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive information (kernel memory) or gain administrative privileges. Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 19.10: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS: 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.
