Details:
Jonathan Looney discovered that the TCP retransmission queue implementation
in the Linux kernel could be fragmented when handling certain TCP Selective
Acknowledgment (SACK) sequences. A remote attacker could use this to cause
a denial of service. (CVE-2019-11478)

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.
