(CVE-2024-27397, CVE-2024-45016, CVE-2024-45001, CVE-2024-38630)
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
  linux-image-5.15.0-1074-azure   5.15.0-1074.83
  linux-image-azure-lts-22.04     5.15.0.1074.72
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
  linux-image-5.15.0-1074-azure   5.15.0-1074.83~20.04.1
  linux-image-azure               5.15.0.1074.83~20.04.1
  linux-image-azure-cvm           5.15.0.1074.83~20.04.1
After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make
all the necessary changes.
ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have
been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and
reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed.
Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages
(e.g. linux-generic, linux-generic-lts-RELEASE, linux-virtual,
linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform
this as well.
