Ubuntu Security Notice USN-7415-1
April 03, 2025

linux vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

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

- Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.

Software Description:
- linux: Linux kernel

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:
- Drivers core;
- Ext4 file system;
- JFS file system;
- Network namespace;
- CAIF protocol;
- Networking core;
- IPv6 networking;
(CVE-2024-56658, CVE-2021-47119, CVE-2024-56600, CVE-2021-47122,
CVE-2021-47483, CVE-2024-56595)

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
linux-image-3.13.0-205-generic 3.13.0-205.256
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-3.13.0-205-lowlatency 3.13.0-205.256
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-generic 3.13.0.205.215
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-generic-lts-trusty 3.13.0.205.215
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-lowlatency 3.13.0.205.215
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-server 3.13.0.205.215
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-virtual 3.13.0.205.215
Available with Ubuntu Pro

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.
