USN-8845-1: GVfs vulnerabilities

Publisher update

The brief

Ubuntu's GVfs update addresses two different risks: malicious SFTP data could cause memory corruption, while a local file-ownership flaw could enable root privilege escalation on specified recent LTS releases. The affected versions differ between the issues. Ubuntu says users need to restart their session after applying the relevant package updates.
