Ubuntu Security Notice USN-4689-4
January 21, 2021

linux, linux-aws, linux-azure, linux-gcp, linux-hwe-5.4, linux-hwe-5.8,
linux-oracle update
==========================================================================

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

- Ubuntu 20.10
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in NVIDIA graphics drivers.

Software Description:
- linux: Linux kernel
- linux-aws: Linux kernel for Amazon Web Services (AWS) systems
- linux-azure: Linux kernel for Microsoft Azure Cloud systems
- linux-gcp: Linux kernel for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) systems
- linux-oracle: Linux kernel for Oracle Cloud systems
- linux-hwe-5.8: Linux hardware enablement (HWE) kernel
- linux-hwe-5.4: Linux hardware enablement (HWE) kernel

Details:

USN-4689-3 fixed vulnerabilities in the NVIDIA server graphics drivers.
This update provides the corresponding updates for the NVIDIA Linux
DKMS kernel modules.

Original advisory details:

 It was discovered that the NVIDIA GPU display driver for the Linux kernel
 contained a vulnerability that allowed user-mode clients to access legacy
 privileged APIs. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of
 service or escalate privileges. (CVE-2021-1052)

 It was discovered that the NVIDIA GPU display driver for the Linux kernel
 did not properly validate a pointer received from userspace in some
 situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
 (CVE-2021-1053)

 Xinyuan Lyu discovered that the NVIDIA GPU display driver for the Linux
 kernel did not properly restrict device-level GPU isolation. A local
 attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly expose
 sensitive information. (CVE-2021-1056)

Update instructions:

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

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.
