Ubuntu 3630-1: Linux kernel vulnerability
Summary
Update Instructions
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 17.10: linux-image-4.13.0-1017-raspi2 4.13.0-1017.18 linux-image-4.13.0-39-generic 4.13.0-39.44 linux-image-4.13.0-39-generic-lpae 4.13.0-39.44 linux-image-4.13.0-39-lowlatency 4.13.0-39.44 linux-image-generic 4.13.0.39.42 linux-image-generic-lpae 4.13.0.39.42 linux-image-lowlatency 4.13.0.39.42 linux-image-raspi2 4.13.0.1017.15 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.
