Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
linux-image-6.8.0-2049-raspi-realtime 6.8.0-2049.50
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-raspi-realtime 6.8.0-2049.50
Available with Ubuntu Pro
linux-image-raspi-realtime-6.8 6.8.0-2049.50
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.

CVE-2026-46266, CVE-2026-46289, CVE-2026-46316, CVE-2026-46325)

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
linux-image-6.17.0-1026-nvidia 6.17.0-1026.26
linux-image-6.17.0-1026-nvidia-64k 6.17.0-1026.26
linux-image-nvidia-6.17 6.17.0-1026.26
linux-image-nvidia-64k-6.17 6.17.0-1026.26
linux-image-nvidia-64k-hwe-24.04 6.17.0-1026.26
linux-image-nvidia-hwe-24.04 6.17.0-1026.26

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.

CVE-2026-52906, CVE-2026-52907, CVE-2026-52933)

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS
linux-image-7.0.0-1013-nvidia 7.0.0-1013.13
linux-image-7.0.0-1013-nvidia-64k 7.0.0-1013.13
linux-image-nvidia 7.0.0-1013.13
linux-image-nvidia-64k 7.0.0-1013.13
linux-image-nvidia-64k-7.0 7.0.0-1013.13
linux-image-nvidia-7.0 7.0.0-1013.13

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.

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in Request Tracker.

Software Description:
- request-tracker5: extensible trouble-ticket tracking system

Details:

Aleksander Iwicki discovered that Request Tracker did not properly sanitize
the search "Page" URL parameter. A remote attacker could possibly use this
issue to conduct a reflected cross-site scripting attack. (CVE-2026-6841)

It was discovered that Request Tracker did not properly sanitize user-
controlled data written to spreadsheet exports of search results. A remote
attacker could possibly use this issue to conduct a spreadsheet
(CSV/formula) injection attack, causing spreadsheet applications to
interpret crafted values as formulas or macros when the file is opened.
(CVE-2026-41073)

It was discovered that Request Tracker did not properly validate input
incorporated into database queries via the entry_aggregator parameter in
JSON search. An authenticated user could possibly use this issue to perform
SQL injection attacks and read or modify data in the RT database.
(CVE-2026-41075)

It was discovered that Request Tracker contained an authentication bypass
when configured to authenticate users against an LDAP or Active Directory
server. Under certain LDAP server configurations, a remote attacker could
possibly use this issue to authenticate as any LDAP-backed RT user without
supplying valid credentials. (CVE-2026-41076)

It was discovered that Request Tracker served certain uploaded content
inline rather than as an attachment. A remote attacker could possibly use
this issue to conduct a cross-site scripting attack. (CVE-2026-44229)

It was discovered that Request Tracker did not properly sanitize input on
search-results chart pages. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue
to conduct a reflected cross-site scripting attack. (CVE-2026-44230)

Jeroen Gui discovered that Request Tracker did not properly restrict access
to the REST 2.0 user collection endpoint. A privileged user could possibly
use this issue to obtain authentication credentials belonging to other
users, including administrators, resulting in privilege escalation and
information disclosure. (CVE-2026-44231)

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in GnuTLS.

Software Description:
- gnutls28: GNU TLS library

Details:

It was discovered that GnuTLS had a timing side-channel when processing
malformed ciphertexts in RSA-PSK ClientKeyExchange. A remote attacker
could possibly use this issue to recover sensitive information. This
issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-0553)

Bing Shi discovered that GnuTLS incorrectly handled decoding certain
DER-encoded certificates. A remote attacker could possibly use this
issue to cause GnuTLS to consume resources, leading to a denial of
service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. (CVE-2024-12243)

Luigino Camastra discovered that GnuTLS incorrectly handled certain
PKCS11 token labels. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause
GnuTLS to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute
arbitrary code. The default compiler options for affected releases
should reduce the vulnerability to a denial of service. (CVE-2025-9820)

Tim Scheckenbach discovered that GnuTLS incorrectly handled malicious
certificates containing a large number of name constraints and subject
alternative names. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to
cause GnuTLS to consume resources, resulting in a denial of service.
This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.
(CVE-2025-14831)

Oleh Konko and Joshua Rogers discovered that GnuTLS did not properly
handle case-insensitive name constraints in certain cases. A remote
attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass certificate validation,
leading to a machine-in-the-middle attack. (CVE-2026-3833)

Joshua Rogers discovered that GnuTLS did not properly handle very short
premaster secrets in certain RSA key exchange cases with PKCS#11-backed
server keys. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to obtain
sensitive information. This issue only affected Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. (CVE-2026-5260)

Joshua Rogers discovered that GnuTLS did not properly handle malformed
DTLS handshake fragments in certain cases. A remote attacker could
possibly use this issue to obtain sensitive information, or cause a
denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.
(CVE-2026-33845)

Haruto Kimura, Oscar Reparaz, and Zou Dikai discovered that GnuTLS did
not properly validate DTLS handshake fragment lengths in certain cases.
A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause GnuTLS to
crash, resulting in a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2026-33846)

Joshua Rogers discovered that GnuTLS did not properly order DTLS packets
with duplicate sequence numbers in certain cases. A remote attacker
could possibly use this issue to cause GnuTLS to crash, resulting in a
denial of service. (CVE-2026-42009)

Joshua Rogers discovered that GnuTLS did not properly handle usernames
containing NUL characters in certain RSA-PSK configurations. A remote
attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass authentication and gain
unintended access to services. This issue only affected Ubuntu 20.04
LTS. (CVE-2026-42010)

Summary:

PHP could be made to crash or run programs if it received
specially crafted network traffic.

Software Description:
- php7.0: HTML-embedded scripting language interpreter

- Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Summary:

OpenSSH could be made to overwrite files as the administrator.

Software Description:
- openssh: secure shell (SSH) for secure access to remote machines

Details:

It was discovered that OpenSSH incorrectly handled file permissions when
downloading files as root using the legacy scp protocol without the
preserve-mode option. An attacker could use this to install setuid or setgid
files on a system, possibly leading to privilege escalation.
