    Ubuntu Security Notice USN-5925-1

    Ubuntu Security Notice 5925-1 - It was discovered that the Upper Level
    Protocol subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle sockets
    entering the LISTEN state in certain protocols, leading to a
    use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a
    denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. It was discovered
    that a race condition existed in the Kernel Connection Multiplexor socket implementation in the Linux kernel when releasing sockets in certain situations. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service.
