Ubuntu Security Notice USN-8658-3
August 25, 2026
linux-azure, linux-azure-fde, linux-nvidia-tegra-igx 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-azure: Linux kernel for Microsoft Azure Cloud systems
- linux-azure-fde: Linux kernel for Microsoft Azure CVM cloud systems
- linux-nvidia-tegra-igx: Linux kernel for NVIDIA Tegra IGX systems
Details:
Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:
- Open vSwitch;
- SCTP protocol;
(CVE-2026-53224, CVE-2026-53246, CVE-2026-64531)
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
linux-image-5.15.0-1055-nvidia-tegra-igx 5.15.0-1055.55
linux-image-5.15.0-1055-nvidia-tegra-igx-rt 5.15.0-1055.55
linux-image-5.15.0-1119-azure 5.15.0-1119.128
linux-image-5.15.0-1119-azure-fde 5.15.0-1119.128
linux-image-azure-5.15 5.15.0.1119.117
linux-image-azure-fde-5.15 5.15.0.1119.128
linux-image-azure-fde-lts-22.04 5.15.0.1119.128
linux-image-azure-lts-22.04 5.15.0.1119.117
linux-image-nvidia-tegra-igx 5.15.0.1055.57
linux-image-nvidia-tegra-igx-5.15 5.15.0.1055.57
linux-image-nvidia-tegra-igx-rt 5.15.0.1055.57
linux-image-nvidia-tegra-igx-rt-5.15 5.15.0.1055.57
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.
