Title:CVE-2012-6546 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial) - low.
Description:The ATM implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.6 does not initialize certain structures, which allows local users to obtain sensitive information from kernel stack memory via a crafted application. Mathias Krause discovered information leaks in the Linux kernel's Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networking stack. A local user could exploit these flaws to examine some parts of kernel memory.
