Detail
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 18.10 - Ubuntu 18.04 LTS - Ubuntu 16.04 LTS - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Summary: An intended access restriction in snapd could be bypassed by strict mode snaps on 64 bit architectures. Software Description: - snapd: Daemon and tooling that enable snap packages Details: The snapd default seccomp filter for strict mode snaps blocks the use of the ioctl() system call when used with TIOCSTI as the second argument to the system call. Jann Horn discovered that this restriction could be circumvented on 64 bit architectures. A malicious snap could exploit this to bypass intended access restrictions to insert characters into the terminal's input queue. On Ubuntu, snapd typically will have already automatically refreshed itself to snapd 2.37.4 which is unaffected. Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 18.10: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS: In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
