\n– Ubuntu 20.04 LTS<\/p>\n
Summary:<\/p>\n
Several security issues were fixed in WebKitGTK.<\/p>\n
Software Description:
\n– webkit2gtk: Web content engine library for GTK+<\/p>\n
Details:<\/p>\n
A large number of security issues were discovered in the WebKitGTK Web and

\nbrowser security, including cross-site scripting attacks, denial of service
\nattacks, and arbitrary code execution.<\/p>\n

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