Ubuntu Security Notice USN-6996-1
September 09, 2024

webkit2gtk vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

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

- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in WebKitGTK.

Software Description:
- webkit2gtk: Web content engine library for GTK+

Details:

Several security issues were discovered in the WebKitGTK Web and JavaScript
engines. If a user were tricked into viewing a malicious website, a remote
attacker could exploit a variety of issues related to web browser security,
including cross-site scripting attacks, denial of service attacks, and
arbitrary code execution.

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
libjavascriptcoregtk-4.1-0 2.44.3-0ubuntu0.24.04.1
libjavascriptcoregtk-6.0-1 2.44.3-0ubuntu0.24.04.1
libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0 2.44.3-0ubuntu0.24.04.1
libwebkitgtk-6.0-4 2.44.3-0ubuntu0.24.04.1

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
libjavascriptcoregtk-4.0-18 2.44.3-0ubuntu0.22.04.1
libjavascriptcoregtk-4.1-0 2.44.3-0ubuntu0.22.04.1

fixes. After a standard system update you need to restart any applications
that use WebKitGTK, such as Epiphany, to make all the necessary changes.
