Canonical published today the first Linux kernel security update for its recently released Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish) operating system series to address three security vulnerabilities.

Dubbed as the Jammy Jellyfish, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS arrived last week on April 21st as Canonical’s 9th long-term support (LTS) series, which means that it will be supported with software and security updates for the next five years, until April 2027.
