freerdp2 vulnerabilities
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
Summary:
Several security issues were fixed in FreeRDP.
Software Description:
- freerdp2: RDP client for Windows Terminal Services
Details:
Evgeny Legerov discovered that FreeRDP incorrectly handled certain memory
operations. If a user were tricked into connecting to a malicious server, a
remote attacker could use this issue to cause FreeRDP to crash, resulting
in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2024-32039, CVE-2024-32040, CVE-2024-32041)

linux, linux-hwe vulnerabilities
==========================================================================
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: Linux kernel
- linux-hwe: Linux hardware enablement (HWE) kernel
Details:
Chenyuan Yang discovered that the CEC driver driver in the Linux kernel
contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this
to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary
code. (CVE-2024-23848)
Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.

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.
