Jean-Claude Graf, Sandro Rüegge, Ali Hajiabadi, and Kaveh Razavi discovered that the Linux kernel contained insufficient branch predictor isolation between a guest and a userspace hypervisor for certain processors. This flaw is known as VMSCAPE. An attacker in a guest VM could possibly use this to expose sensitive information from the host OS. (CVE-2025-40300)
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; - HSI subsystem; - Media drivers; - Network drivers; - Bluetooth subsystem; - Timer subsystem; - Memory management; - Appletalk network protocol; - Netfilter; - TLS protocol; (CVE-2025-21729, CVE-2025-37838, CVE-2025-37958, CVE-2025-38118, CVE-2025-38227, CVE-2025-38352, CVE-2025-38616, CVE-2025-38666, CVE-2025-38678, CVE-2025-39964, CVE-2025-39993, CVE-2025-40018)
