Title:CVE-2015-0274 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (precise) - high.
Description:The XFS implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.15 improperly uses an old size value during remote attribute replacement, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (transaction overrun and data corruption) or possibly gain privileges by leveraging XFS filesystem access. Eric Windisch discovered flaw in how the Linux kernel's XFS file system replaces remote attributes. A local access with access to an XFS file system could exploit this flaw to escalate their privileges.
