Ubuntu Security Notice USN-7832-1
October 21, 2025

linux-oracle-5.4 vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

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

- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.

Software Description:
- linux-oracle-5.4: Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud 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:
- Device tree and open firmware driver;
- SCSI subsystem;
- TTY drivers;
- SMB network file system;
- Bluetooth subsystem;
- Network traffic control;
(CVE-2025-38350, CVE-2023-52975, CVE-2024-50073, CVE-2024-57996,
CVE-2024-49950, CVE-2024-38541, CVE-2025-37752, CVE-2023-52757,
CVE-2025-38083, CVE-2025-37797)

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
linux-image-5.4.0-1148-oracle 5.4.0-1148.158~18.04.1
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-oracle 5.4.0.1148.158~18.04.1
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-oracle-5.4 5.4.0.1148.158~18.04.1
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.
