All those systems rely on the ABS rotational sensors, one in each wheel. One sensor failing would result in the messages you've seen. Less likely is a wiring problem or control unit failure.

Or it could just be a glitch and it'll sort itself after a restart. If it doesn't, it may need a proper diagnostic to be undertaken.

As Lexman says it is almost certainly one of your wheel sensors. My sister had exactly the same errors on her passat and it was one wheel sensor which - for the VW - was 20 quid and easy enough to fit themselves. They had to read the codes to know which sensor of course.
