It was discovered that a race condition existed in the Bluetooth subsystem
in the Linux kernel, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. A
privileged local attacker could use this to possibly cause a denial of
service (system crash). (CVE-2024-24860)

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:

  • SuperH RISC architecture;
  • MMC subsystem;
  • Network drivers;
  • SCSI drivers;
  • GFS2 file system;
  • IPv4 networking;
  • IPv6 networking;
  • HD-audio driver;
    (CVE-2024-26830, CVE-2024-39484, CVE-2024-36901, CVE-2024-26929,
    CVE-2024-26921, CVE-2021-46926, CVE-2023-52629, CVE-2023-52760)
