USN-8224-1

Qualys discovered that several vulnerabilities existed in the AppArmor Linux kernel Security Module (LSM). An unprivileged local attacker could use these issues to load, replace, and remove arbitrary AppArmor profiles causing denial of service, exposure of sensitive information (kernel memory), local privilege escalation, or possibly escape a container. (LP: #2143853, CVE-2026-23268, CVE-2026-23269, CVE-2026-23403, CVE-2026-23404, CVE-2026-23405, CVE-2026-23406, CVE-2026-23407, CVE-2026-23408, CVE-2026-23409, CVE-2026-23410, CVE-2026-23411)
