USN-8781-1: Linux kernel (NVIDIA Tegra) vulnerabilities
Ubuntu USN-8781-1 patches Linux kernel NVIDIA Tegra flaws including CVE-2025-10263, an Arm TLB race enabling local privilege escalation.
USN-8781-1 fixes Linux kernel vulnerabilities in Ubuntu builds for NVIDIA Tegra, including CVE-2025-10263, where some Arm processors complete broadcast TLB invalidation before related memory writes are globally observed. A local attacker could exploit this to write to memory after permissions were revoked, bypassing memory protections or escalating privileges. The update also corrects flaws across ARM64, ARM32, PowerPC, RISC-V, UAPI, and kernel build subsystems.
- CVE-2025-10263: Arm TLB invalidation race enables local privilege escalation
- Affects Ubuntu Linux kernel builds for NVIDIA Tegra devices
- Update also fixes flaws in multiple kernel subsystems

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 A local attacker could possibly use this to write to memory after permission to do so had been revoked, bypassing memory protections or escalating privileges.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; - User-space API (UAPI); - Kernel build system; - ARM32 architecture; - PowerPC architecture; - RISC-V…
