Ubuntu Security Notice USN-7163-1
December 16, 2024
linux vulnerability
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Summary:
The system could be made to crash if it received specially crafted
network traffic.
Software Description:
- linux: Linux kernel
Details:
A security issue was discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use this to compromise the system.
This update corrects flaws in the following subsystem:
- Network traffic control;
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
linux-image-3.13.0-201-generic 3.13.0-201.252
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-3.13.0-201-lowlatency 3.13.0-201.252
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-generic 3.13.0.201.211
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-generic-lts-trusty 3.13.0.201.211
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-lowlatency 3.13.0.201.211
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-server 3.13.0.201.211
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-virtual 3.13.0.201.211
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.

- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Summary:
Several security issues were fixed in Docker.
Software Description:
- docker.io-app: Linux container runtime
- docker.io: Linux container runtime
Details:
Yair Zak discovered that Docker could unexpectedly forward DNS requests
from internal networks in an unexpected manner. An attacker could possibly
use this issue to exfiltrate data by encoding information in DNS queries
to controlled nameservers. This issue was only addressed in
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-29018)
Cory Snider discovered that Docker did not properly handle authorization
plugin request processing. An attacker could possibly use this issue to
bypass authorization controls by forwarding API requests without their
full body, leading to unauthorized actions. (CVE-2024-41110)
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 24.10
docker.io 26.1.3-0ubuntu1.1
