- What: Ubuntu has released security updates to address vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi, Real-time, Oracle, and Xilinx variants.
- Impact: Systems running vulnerable versions of the Linux kernel on Ubuntu are susceptible to exploitation.
Ubuntu Linux has released security updates to address several vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel. Specifically, updates have been issued for Raspberry Pi, Real-time, Oracle, and Xilinx variants of the Linux kernel. [USN-7928-4] Linux kernel (Raspberry Pi) vulnerabilities [USN-7921-2] Linux kernel (Real-time) vulnerabilities [USN-7922-3] Linux kernel (Oracle) vulnerabilities [USN-7931-4] Linux kernel (Xilinx) vulnerabilities [USN-7928-4] Linux kernel (Raspberry Pi) vulnerabilities ========================================================================== Ubuntu Security Notice USN-7928-4 December 19, 2025 linux-raspi vulnerabilities ========================================================================== A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel. Software Description: - linux-raspi: Linux kernel for Raspberry Pi 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: - Cryptographic API; - Media drivers; - Network drivers; - AFS file system; - F2FS file system; - Tracing infrastructure; - Netfilter; (CVE-2022-49390, CVE-2024-47691, CVE-2024-50067, CVE-2024-53090, CVE-2024-53218, CVE-2025-21855, CVE-2025-39964, CVE-2025-39993, CVE-2025-40018) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS linux-image-5.15.0-1092-raspi 5.15.0-1092.95 linux-image-raspi 5.15.0.1092.90 linux-image-raspi-5.15 5.15.0.1092.90 linux-image-raspi-nolpae 5.15.0.1092.90 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.
