Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Ubuntu Linux 6.8, 6.17 and 7.0 contain AppArmor SAUCE patches which incorrectly sleep while holding a spinlock in notification handling code. The bug can be triggered by an unprivileged local user and can result in kernel panic or deadlock.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Upgrade to a newer Ubuntu kernel version that includes the commit f0e73aec23d13a9877fba096b1c2fd19f66e5313 (check Ubuntu Security Notices for availability)

  1. Identify the current running kernel version using 'uname -r'
  2. Check if Ubuntu kernel security notices or hardware enablement (HWE) updates are available for your Ubuntu version
  3. For Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble): Apply the Ubuntu kernel patch via 'sudo apt update && sudo apt install linux-image-$(uname -r)' or wait for the next HWE kernel upload that includes the fix
  4. For Ubuntu 25.10 (Plucky): Apply the Ubuntu kernel patch via 'sudo apt update && sudo apt install linux-image-$(uname -r)'
  5. For Ubuntu 26.04: Apply the Ubuntu kernel patch via 'sudo apt update && sudo apt install linux-image-$(uname -r)'
  6. Reboot the system to load the patched kernel
  7. Verify the fix is applied by checking the kernel version matches the patched release
Caveat Kernel updates may require system reboot; ensure compatibility with existing system configurations and third-party kernel modules
