+linux (5.10.46-4) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ * From Linux 5.10.46-4, unprivileged calls to bpf() are disabled by
+ default, mitigating several security issues. However, an admin can
+ still change this setting later on, if needed, by writing 0 or 1 to
+ the kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled sysctl.
+
+ If you prefer to keep unprivileged calls to bpf() enabled, set the
+ sysctl:
+
+ kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled = 0
+
+ which is the upstream default.

+linux (5.10~rc7-1~exp2) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ * From Linux 5.10, all users are allowed to create user namespaces by
+ default. This will allow programs such as web browsers and container
+ managers to create more restricted sandboxes for untrusted or
+ less-trusted code, without the need to run as root or to use a
+ setuid-root helper.
+
+ The previous Debian default was to restrict this feature to processes
+ running as root, because it exposed more security issues in the
+ kernel. However, the security benefits of more widespread sandboxing
+ probably now outweigh this risk.
+
+ If you prefer to keep this feature restricted, set the sysctl:
+
+ kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone = 0

+ * From Linux 4.13.10-1, AppArmor is enabled by default. This allows
+ defining a "profile" for each installed program that can mitigate
+ security vulnerabilities in it. However, an incorrect profile might
+ disable some functionality of the program.
+
+ In case you suspect that an AppArmor profile is incorrect, see
+ <https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2017/11/msg00178.html> and
+ consider reporting a bug in the package providing the profile. The
+ profile may be part of the program's package or apparmor-profiles.

+
+ * From Linux 4.10, the old 'virtual syscall' interface on 64-bit PCs
+ (amd64) is disabled. This breaks chroot environments and containers
+ that use (e)glibc 2.13 and earlier, including those based on Debian 7
+ or RHEL/CentOS 6. To re-enable it, set the kernel parameter:
+ vsyscall=emulate

+linux-latest (76) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ * From Linux 4.8, several changes have been made in the kernel
+ configuration to 'harden' the system, i.e. to mitigate security bugs.
+ Some changes may cause legitimate applications to fail, and can be
+ reverted by run-time configuration:
+ - On most architectures, the /dev/mem device can no longer be used to
+ access devices that also have a kernel driver. This breaks dosemu
+ and some old user-space graphics drivers. To allow this, set the
+ kernel parameter: iomem=relaxed
+ - The kernel log is no longer readable by unprivileged users. To
+ allow this, set the sysctl: kernel.dmesg_restrict=0

+ * From Linux 4.7, the iptables connection tracking system will no longer
+ automatically load helper modules. If your firewall configuration
+ depends on connection tracking helpers, you should explicitly load the
+ required modules. For more information, see
