LTS. Unfortunately, the fix for CVE-2018-1108 introduced a regression
where insufficient early entropy prevented services from starting,
leading in some situations to a failure to boot, This update addresses
the issue.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Original advisory details:

 Jann Horn discovered that the Linux kernel's implementation of random
 seed data reported that it was in a ready state before it had gathered
 sufficient entropy. An attacker could use this to expose sensitive
 information. (CVE-2018-1108)

 Wen Xu discovered that the ext4 file system implementation in the Linux
 kernel did not properly initialize the crc32c checksum driver. A local
 attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash).
 (CVE-2018-1094)

 It was discovered that the cdrom driver in the Linux kernel contained an
 incorrect bounds check. A local attacker could use this to expose sensitive
 information (kernel memory). (CVE-2018-10940)

 Wen Xu discovered that the ext4 file system implementation in the Linux
 kernel did not properly validate xattr sizes. A local attacker could use
 this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2018-1095)

 Jann Horn discovered that the 32 bit adjtimex() syscall implementation for
 64 bit Linux kernels did not properly initialize memory returned to user
 space in some situations. A local attacker could use this to expose
 sensitive information (kernel memory). (CVE-2018-11508)

 It was discovered that an information leak vulnerability existed in the
 floppy driver in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to
 expose sensitive information (kernel memory). (CVE-2018-7755)");
