USN-6893-2: Linux kernel vulnerabilities

Releases

• Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

Packages

• linux-gke - Linux kernel for Google Container Engine (GKE) systems
• linux-nvidia - Linux kernel for NVIDIA systems

Details

It was discovered that a race condition existed in the Bluetooth subsystem
in the Linux kernel when modifying certain settings values through debugfs.
A privileged local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
(CVE-2024-24857, CVE-2024-24858, CVE-2024-24859)

Update instructions

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

Ubuntu 24.04

• linux-image-6.8.0-1006-gke - 6.8.0-1006.9
• linux-image-6.8.0-1009-nvidia - 6.8.0-1009.9
• linux-image-6.8.0-1009-nvidia-64k - 6.8.0-1009.9
• linux-image-gke - 6.8.0-1006.9
• linux-image-nvidia - 6.8.0-1009.9
• linux-image-nvidia-64k - 6.8.0-1009.9

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.
