callegar Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago Hi, just noticed that rockchip kernels in apt repos lag wrt to those advertised on board pages. For example if you are on rockpro64 the web page https://armbian.com/boards/rockpro64 will tell you that the current kernel for this board is 6.18.26. However, the apt repos will give you 6.18.10 as the most recent current kernel. This seems particularly problematic today, with the serious copy-fail vulnerability that, to the best of my understanding, also affects ARM. Specifically, the board pages will give you the impression that you are on a kernel new enough to have the vulnerability patched, while in fact updating the system will not give you that kernel, but a vulnerable one. All boards with the rockchip64 kernel seem to be affected. 0 Quote
