The remote host is missing an update for the 'apport' package(s) announced via the USN-2569-1 advisory. Stephane Graber and Tavis Ormandy independently discovered that Apport incorrectly handled the crash reporting feature. A local attacker could use this issue to gain elevated privileges. 'apport' package(s) on Ubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu 14.10. Please install the updated package(s)
