Azure Linux 3.0.2022 Ships With More Than 470 CVE Fixes

Leave a comment

Microsoft pushed Azure Linux 3.0.2022 on Friday night, and the changelog lists more than 470 CVEs fixed, Phoronix reports.

What’s in it

  • Certificate hardening after the eMudhra incident
  • Kernel and common open-source package fixes
  • Security fixes for some of Microsoft’s own Azure components
  • New Dockerfiles and an OpenVMM confidential-computing patch

My take

470 CVEs in a month is the AI bug-hunting era in a single number. Whatever distro you run, patch on a schedule and actually reboot into the new kernel.

God Bless, and May the Source Be with You!
