Product1 versions

Other names

Is Ubuntu listed under other names? Yes.

Canonical also lists Ubuntu under more specific names, such as Ubuntu Linux and Ubuntu Core. Flaws listed only under those names are counted on their own pages, not here. If you run one of these, open its page for its own exploited flaws.
