how would i know if Kubuntu 25.10 is affected (based on ubuntu)?
i guess this means yes?
command 'snap' from deb snapd (2.73+ubuntu25.10.1)
as it is lower than the version mentioned in the article "Upstream snapd: versions prior to 2.75"

now the question is how do i force an update on that thing?
sudo apt upgrade did not include an update for snapd:
