Merge ~bromer/usn.ubuntu.com/+git/lsn:lsn into usn.ubuntu.com:master

[Ben Romer]

The LSN has additional information in it this time as livepatching 5.4 has been difficult. I intend to do a second LSN when we have working patches or give up and decide that a reboot is really necessary for 5.4.

LGTM - thanks!

+title: "LSN-0071-1: Kernel Live Patch Security Notice"
+permalink: /lsn/0071-1/index.html
+releases: [ubuntu-18.04-lts]
+date: 2020-09-10 09:49:49
+description: "Several security issues were fixed in the kernel."
+---
+
+## Linux kernel vulnerabilities
+
+A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
+
+* Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
+* Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
+* Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
+
+### Summary
+
+A security issue was fixed in the 4.15 kernel. This issue affects the 5.4 kernel
+as well, but a livepatch is not yet available. While work is continuing to 
+develop livepatches for all affected kernels, due to the severity of the issue,
+we are releasing patches as they become ready.
+
+### Software Description
+
+* linux -  Linux kernel 
+* linux-aws -  Linux kernel for Amazon Web Services (AWS) systems 
+* linux-oem -  Linux kernel for OEM systems 
+
+### Details
+
+Or Cohen discovered that the AF_PACKET implementation in the Linux kernel
+did not properly perform bounds checking in some situations. A local
+attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or
+possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2020-14386)
+
+## Update instructions
+
+The problem can be corrected by updating your kernel livepatch to the following
+versions:
+
+Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
+: aws - 71.1
+: generic - 71.1
+: lowlatency - 71.1
+: oem - 71.1
+
+A mitigation is available if your kernel is affected, did not yet receive a 
+livepatch, and rebooting into the most recently released kernel is not 
+practical. If your system does not require the use of unprivileged user
+namespaces, you may disable them and mitigate the problem using the following
+command:
+
+    sudo sysctl kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=0
+
+## Support Information
+
+Kernels older than the levels listed below do not receive livepatch 
+updates. If you are running a kernel version earlier than the one listed
+below, please upgrade your kernel as soon as possible.
+
+Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
+: linux-aws - 4.15.0-1054
+: linux-oem - 4.15.0-1063
+: linux - 4.15.0-69
+
+Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
+: linux-azure - 4.15.0-1063
