Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6895-3
July 19, 2024

linux-aws-6.5, linux-lowlatency-hwe-6.5, linux-oracle-6.5,
linux-starfive-6.5 vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.

Software Description:
- linux-aws-6.5: Linux kernel for Amazon Web Services (AWS) systems
- linux-lowlatency-hwe-6.5: Linux low latency kernel
- linux-oracle-6.5: Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud systems
- linux-starfive-6.5: Linux kernel for StarFive processors

Details:

It was discovered that the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver in the Linux
kernel contained a race condition, leading to a use-after-free
vulnerability. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or
possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2023-6270)

It was discovered that the HugeTLB file system component of the Linux
Kernel contained a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability. A privileged
attacker could possibly use this to to cause a denial of service.
(CVE-2024-0841)

It was discovered that the Open vSwitch implementation in the Linux kernel
could overflow its stack during recursive action operations under certain
conditions. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash). (CVE-2024-1151)

Gui-Dong Han discovered that the software RAID driver in the Linux kernel
contained a race condition, leading to an integer overflow vulnerability. A
privileged attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash). (CVE-2024-23307)

Bai Jiaju discovered that the Xceive XC4000 silicon tuner device driver in
the Linux kernel contained a race condition, leading to an integer overflow
vulnerability. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of
service (system crash). (CVE-2024-24861)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
  linux-image-6.5.0-1017-starfive  6.5.0-1017.18~22.04.1
  linux-image-6.5.0-1023-aws      6.5.0-1023.23~22.04.1
  linux-image-6.5.0-1026-oracle   6.5.0-1026.26~22.04.1
  linux-image-6.5.0-1026-oracle-64k  6.5.0-1026.26~22.04.1
  linux-image-6.5.0-44-lowlatency  6.5.0-44.44.1~22.04.1
  linux-image-6.5.0-44-lowlatency-64k  6.5.0-44.44.1~22.04.1
  linux-image-aws                 6.5.0.1023.23~22.04.1
  linux-image-lowlatency-64k-hwe-22.04  6.5.0.44.44.1~22.04.1
  linux-image-lowlatency-hwe-22.04  6.5.0.44.44.1~22.04.1
  linux-image-oracle              6.5.0.1026.26~22.04.1
  linux-image-oracle-64k          6.5.0.1026.26~22.04.1
  linux-image-starfive            6.5.0.1017.18~22.04.1

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.
