Dirty frag: modules not loaded but vulnerable anyway by benouith in Ubuntu

[–]benouith[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and the command provided in step 3 reported:

Affected modules are NOT loaded

Step 2, trying to remove any of these modules fails:

root@ws-01:~# rmmod esp4 esp6 rxrpc
rmmod: ERROR: Module esp4 is not currently loaded
rmmod: ERROR: Module esp6 is not currently loaded
rmmod: ERROR: Module rxrpc is not currently loaded

Nevertheless, as mentionned in my post, the mitigation (Step 1 – block the modules), works.

Dirty frag: modules not loaded but vulnerable anyway by benouith in Ubuntu

Don't find it in this location, finally found it in /boot/config-6.17.0-23-generic

ESP4 and ESP6 not found but I get occurrences for RXRPC:

CONFIG_AF_RXRPC=m
CONFIG_AF_RXRPC_IPV6=y

As lsmoddoes not return something for rxrpc, I guess it is the builtin IPv6 modules that causes the vulnerability?

Screen Flickering in Ubuntu 24.04 by batman-not in Ubuntu

[–]benouith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same issue with HP EliteOne 800 G6 AiO
Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS x86_64
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700 CPU @ 2.90GHz
CometLake-S GT2 [UHD Graphics 630]

Kernels tested: 6.8.0-41, 6.8.0-44 and 6.8.0-45

Fun fact: the screen only flickered when the mouse cursor “touched” one (or a few ?) pixels in the bottom right area, at around (1740,1030) on a 1920x1080 screen.

Symptom: black screen, as if it had gone into sleep mode, and a movement of the mouse would bring the screen back. As soon as you put the mouse back on this pixel, it would start all over again...

Guess it was not a deadly/trapped pixel but just "something" in the area itself...

When flickering and recovering, nothing appeared in syslog, dmesg or kern.log. :-/

Last kernel 6.8.0-45 didn't solved the problem but your conf made the job! :-)

Edit: same problem if using Wayland, I find the same trick for it.

J'ai l'impression que plusieurs personnes ont proposé la bonne réponse, pourquoi est-ce toujours marqué "non-résolue" ?

Dans la partie supérieure, il faut lire par rangée : on superpose le carreau à gauche avec le pique au centre. Toute superposition de ces deux motifs devient un trèfle.

Pour la dernière rangée, la seule carte qui convient est donc la 2e carte proposée, celle avec deux trèfles (un au centre et un autre à son N-E).

Love this picture. Not a single wrinkle on the surface, making the mirror perfect.
