Has Ubuntu backported the patch yet? Don’t see it on a first look…

Ubuntu security does list it here - https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2026-42945

Mentions that you can get it by getting security updates. Exe dev has a custom image i believe!?

Indeed, thanks. This should be fixed for all new VMs very shortly.
