Ubuntu Security Notice USN-8849-1
September 30, 2026

linux-nvidia-tegra-5.15 vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.

Software Description:
- linux-nvidia-tegra-5.15: Linux kernel for NVIDIA Tegra systems

Details:

It was discovered that some Arm processors could complete a broadcast
translation lookaside buffer (TLB) invalidation before memory writes made
through the invalidated translation were globally observed. A local
attacker could possibly use this to write to memory after permission to do
so had been revoked, bypassing memory protections or escalating privileges.
(CVE-2025-10263)

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:
  - ARM64 architecture;
  - InfiniBand drivers;
  - Network drivers;
  - TCM subsystem;
  - exFAT file system;
  - Network file system (NFS) server daemon;
  - B.A.T.M.A.N. meshing protocol;
  - IPv4 networking;
  - IPv6 networking;
  - Netfilter;
  - RDS protocol;

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
  linux-image-5.15.0-1068-nvidia-tegra  5.15.0-1068.70~20.04.1
                                  Available with Ubuntu Pro
  linux-image-5.15.0-1068-nvidia-tegra-rt  5.15.0-1068.70~20.04.1
                                  Available with Ubuntu Pro
  linux-image-nvidia-tegra        5.15.0.1068.70~20.04.1
                                  Available with Ubuntu Pro
  linux-image-nvidia-tegra-5.15   5.15.0.1068.70~20.04.1
                                  Available with Ubuntu Pro
  linux-image-nvidia-tegra-rt     5.15.0.1068.70~20.04.1
                                  Available with Ubuntu Pro
  linux-image-nvidia-tegra-rt-5.15  5.15.0.1068.70~20.04.1
                                  Available with Ubuntu Pro

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.
