Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS : Linux kernel vulnerabilities (USN-7100-1)

high Nessus Plugin ID 210741

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Ubuntu host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-7100-1 advisory.

 Supraja Sridhara, Benedict Schlter, Mark Kuhne, Andrin Bertschi, and Shweta Shinde discovered that the Confidential Computing framework in the Linux kernel for x86 platforms did not properly handle 32-bit emulation on TDX and SEV. An attacker with access to the VMM could use this to cause a denial of service (guest crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-25744)

 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:
