    Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5756-2

    Ubuntu Security Notice 5756-2 - Jann Horn discovered that the Linux kernel
    did not properly track memory allocations for anonymous VMA mappings in
    some situations, leading to potential data structure reuse. A local
    attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered that a memory leak existed in the IPv6 implementation of the Linux kernel. A local attacker could use this to
    cause a denial of service.
