==========================================================================

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

- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.

Software Description:
- linux-oracle: Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud systems

Details:

Yuxuan Hu discovered that the Bluetooth RFCOMM protocol driver in the Linux
Kernel contained a race condition, leading to a NULL pointer dereference.
An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system
crash). (CVE-2024-22099)

It was discovered that a race condition existed in the Bluetooth subsystem
in the Linux kernel, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. A
privileged local attacker could use this to possibly cause a denial of
service (system crash). (CVE-2024-24860)

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:
- SuperH RISC architecture;
- User-Mode Linux (UML);
- GPU drivers;
- MMC subsystem;
- Network drivers;
- PHY drivers;
- Pin controllers subsystem;
- Xen hypervisor drivers;
- GFS2 file system;
- Core kernel;
- Bluetooth subsystem;

(CVE-2024-26903, CVE-2024-35835, CVE-2023-52644, CVE-2024-39292,
CVE-2024-36940, CVE-2024-26600, CVE-2023-52629, CVE-2024-35955,
CVE-2023-52760, CVE-2023-52806, CVE-2024-39484, CVE-2024-26679,
CVE-2024-26654, CVE-2024-36901, CVE-2024-26687, CVE-2023-52470)

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
linux-image-4.15.0-1134-oracle 4.15.0-1134.145
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-oracle-lts-18.04 4.15.0.1134.139
Available with Ubuntu Pro

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
linux-image-4.15.0-1134-oracle 4.15.0-1134.145~16.04.1
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-oracle 4.15.0.1134.145~16.04.1
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.
