Ubuntu Security Notice USN-8059-8
March 10, 2026
linux-nvidia, linux-nvidia-6.8, linux-nvidia-lowlatency vulnerabilities
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
Summary:
Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
Software Description:
- linux-nvidia: Linux kernel for NVIDIA systems
- linux-nvidia-lowlatency: Linux low latency kernel for NVIDIA systems
- linux-nvidia-6.8: Linux kernel for NVIDIA systems
Details:
Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:
- SMB network file system;
(CVE-2025-22037, CVE-2025-37899)
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
linux-image-6.8.0-1047-nvidia 6.8.0-1047.50
linux-image-6.8.0-1047-nvidia-64k 6.8.0-1047.50
linux-image-6.8.0-1047-nvidia-lowlatency 6.8.0-1047.50.1
linux-image-6.8.0-1047-nvidia-lowlatency-64k 6.8.0-1047.50.1
linux-image-nvidia 6.8.0-1047.50
linux-image-nvidia-6.8 6.8.0-1047.50
linux-image-nvidia-64k 6.8.0-1047.50
linux-image-nvidia-64k-6.8 6.8.0-1047.50
linux-image-nvidia-lowlatency 6.8.0-1047.50.1
linux-image-nvidia-lowlatency-6.8 6.8.0-1047.50.1
linux-image-nvidia-lowlatency-64k 6.8.0-1047.50.1
linux-image-nvidia-lowlatency-64k-6.8 6.8.0-1047.50.1
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
linux-image-6.8.0-1047-nvidia 6.8.0-1047.50~22.04.1
linux-image-6.8.0-1047-nvidia-64k 6.8.0-1047.50~22.04.1
linux-image-nvidia-6.8 6.8.0-1047.50~22.04.1
linux-image-nvidia-64k-6.8 6.8.0-1047.50~22.04.1
linux-image-nvidia-64k-hwe-22.04 6.8.0-1047.50~22.04.1
linux-image-nvidia-hwe-22.04 6.8.0-1047.50~22.04.1
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.
