My colleague has verified all 4 versions. In all cases, on supported hardware, the test now operates as expected: the secret does not leak unless the mitigation is manually turned off.
I notice the SRU verification is happening a bit sooner than I expected - when do you expect these kernels to be released? ** Tags removed: verification-needed-bionic verification-needed-disco verification-needed-eoan verification-needed-xenial ** Tags added: verification-done-bionic verification-done-disco verification-done-eoan verification-done-xenial -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1853142 Title: CVE-2019-18660: patches for Ubuntu Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in linux source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Disco: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Eoan: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Focal: Triaged Bug description: Hi, Recently you would have been notified about CVE-2019-18660 via email to the linux-distros private mailing list. In short, it is a bug in the Spectre v2 class affecting powerpc. We have developed some backports for supported Ubuntu kernels, and tested them in our lab. I will attach the patches shortly. Most of them should end up being identical to the versions in linux-stable, but the ones for Bionic are slightly different due to it using a 4.15 kernel. Please get in touch with me or Michael Ellerman (powerpc maintainer) if you have any questions or if we can be of any assistance.
