Summary: linux, linux-aws, linux-kvm, linux-lts-xenial vulnerabilities

Details: Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use- after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2023-47233) 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: - Ext4 file system; - JFS file system; - NILFS2 file system; - Core kernel; - Bluetooth subsystem; - Networking core; - IPv4 networking; - Logical Link layer; - MAC80211 subsystem; - Netlink; - NFC subsystem; - Tomoyo security module; (CVE-2023-52601, CVE-2024-26622, CVE-2024-26805, CVE-2024-26635, CVE-2023-52602, CVE-2024-26801, CVE-2023-52566, CVE-2024-26704, CVE-2021-46939, CVE-2024-26614, CVE-2023-52604, CVE-2023-52530, CVE-2023-52524)
