Ubuntu Security Notice USN-7671-3
August 04, 2025

linux-iot vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

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

- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.

Software Description:
- linux-iot: Linux kernel for IoT platforms

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:
- ACPI drivers;
- GPU drivers;
- SMB network file system;
- Memory management;
- Netfilter;
- Network traffic control;
(CVE-2024-53051, CVE-2024-46787, CVE-2024-50047, CVE-2024-56662,
CVE-2025-37890, CVE-2025-38001, CVE-2025-37997, CVE-2025-37932,
CVE-2025-37798, CVE-2025-38177, CVE-2025-38000)

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
linux-image-5.4.0-1052-iot 5.4.0-1052.55
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.
