linux-nvidia-tegra-igx 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-nvidia-tegra-igx: Linux kernel for NVIDIA Tegra IGX systems

Details:

It was discovered that the Linux kernel algif_aead module did not properly
handle in-place cryptographic operations. This flaw is known as Copy Fail.
A local attacker could use this to escalate privileges, or possibly escape
a container. (CVE-2026-31431)

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;
  - Ethernet bonding driver;
  - SMB network file system;
  - Netfilter;
  - io_uring subsystem;
  - Packet sockets;
  - TLS protocol;
(CVE-2024-35862, CVE-2024-50060, CVE-2026-23274, CVE-2026-23351,
CVE-2026-31419, CVE-2026-31504, CVE-2026-31533, CVE-2026-43033,
CVE-2026-43077, CVE-2026-43078)

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
  linux-image-5.15.0-1049-nvidia-tegra-igx  5.15.0-1049.49
  linux-image-5.15.0-1049-nvidia-tegra-igx-rt  5.15.0-1049.49
  linux-image-nvidia-tegra-igx    5.15.0.1049.51
  linux-image-nvidia-tegra-igx-5.15  5.15.0.1049.51
  linux-image-nvidia-tegra-igx-rt  5.15.0.1049.51
  linux-image-nvidia-tegra-igx-rt-5.15  5.15.0.1049.51

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.
