• A final stable kernel update for 5.4

    From LWN.net@86:200/23 to All on Thu Dec 4 06:40:08 2025

    Greg Kroah-Hartman has announced the release of the 5.4.302 stable kernel:

    This is the LAST 5.4.y release. It is now end-of-life and should not
    be used by anyone, anymore. As of this point in time, there are 1539
    documented unfixed CVEs for this kernel branch, and that number will
    only increase over time as more CVEs get assigned for kernel bugs.

    For the curious, Kroah-Hartman has also provided
    a list of the unfixed CVEs for 5.4.302.
