(CVE-2022-48655, CVE-2024-36016, CVE-2024-26584, CVE-2021-47131,
CVE-2024-26907, CVE-2024-26585, CVE-2024-26583)<\/p>\n
Update instructions:<\/p>\n
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:<\/p>\n
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
linux-image-5.4.0-1129-aws 5.4.0-1129.139
linux-image-aws-lts-20.04 5.4.0.1129.126<\/p>\n
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
linux-image-5.4.0-1129-aws 5.4.0-1129.139~18.04.1
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-aws 5.4.0.1129.139~18.04.1
Available with Ubuntu Pro<\/p>\n
After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make
all the necessary changes.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
