This\nflaw is known as VMSCAPE. An attacker in a guest VM could possibly use this\nto expose sensitive information from the host OS. (CVE-2025-40300)\n\nSeveral security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.\nAn attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.\nThis update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:\n  - DMA engine subsystem;\n  - GPU drivers;\n  - HSI subsystem;\n  - Media drivers;\n  - Ethernet team driver;\n  - SPI subsystem;\n  - USB core drivers;\n  - Framebuffer layer;\n  -
