USN-8739-1: ImageMagick vulnerabilities

Canonical released USN-8739-1 fixing five ImageMagick flaws that could cause denial of service or arbitrary code execution.

Ubuntu security notice USN-8739-1 patches five ImageMagick vulnerabilities: CVE-2026-56366, CVE-2026-56368, CVE-2026-56371, and CVE-2026-56373 allow denial of service via crafted images on Ubuntu 14.04 through 22.04 LTS. CVE-2026-56370 affects Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and 26.04 LTS and could allow denial of service or arbitrary code execution. Users should apply the updated ImageMagick packages to affected releases.

USN-8741-1: Flatpak vulnerabilities

Ubuntu patched two Flatpak flaws, including a sandbox escape via app-controlled symlinks allowing host code execution (CVE-2026-34078).

Ubuntu security notice USN-8741-1 fixes two Flatpak vulnerabilities in Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, 22.04 LTS, and 24.04 LTS. CVE-2026-34078 stems from improper path validation in sandbox-expose options, letting a malicious or compromised Flatpak app use app-controlled symlinks to access arbitrary host files and gain code execution in the host context. CVE-2026-34079 involves improper path validation when removing outdated ld.so cache files, allowing a compromised app to delete arbitrary files on the host.

USN-8770-1: SimpleSAMLphp vulnerabilities

Ubuntu patches SimpleSAMLphp signature validation and XXE flaws enabling user impersonation, privilege escalation, and information disclosure.

Ubuntu security notice USN-8770-1 fixes multiple SimpleSAMLphp vulnerabilities. CVE-2019-3465 stems from incorrect cryptographic signature validation in XML messages, allowing an authenticated attacker to impersonate users or gain elevated privileges; it only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and 18.04 LTS. CVE-2024-52596 involves improper handling of external entities when parsing untrusted XML, allowing a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, and did not affect Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. An additional flaw in signature verification for SAML messages using the HTTP-Redirect binding is also addressed.

USN-8670-3: curl vulnerability

Ubuntu issued USN-8670-3 updating curl for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS to fix a flaw where wrong client certificates could be used on reused connections.

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-8670-3 extends the curl fix from USN-8670-1 to Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. The flaw, discovered by Joshua Rogers, involves incorrect handling of connection reuse when client certificate settings change, potentially causing the wrong client certificate to be presented. The issue can lead to authentication mix-ups rather than remote code execution.
