The 'linux-lts-vivid' package(s) on Ubuntu 14.04 is missing an update announced via the USN-2889-2 advisory. It is affected by use-after-free vulnerability, incomplete restoration of PIT values, race conditions, handling compressed inline extants, and uninitialized data structures leading to denial of service and sensitive information exposure

It was discovered that the KVM implementation in the Linux kernel did not
properly restore the values of the Programmable Interrupt Timer (PIT). A

the host (system crash). (CVE-2015-7513)

implementation in the Linux kernel had a race condition when checking
whether a socket was bound or not. A local attacker could use this to cause
a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2015-7990)

It was discovered that the Btrfs implementation in the Linux kernel
incorrectly handled compressed inline extants on truncation. A local
attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2015-8374)

It was discovered that the netfilter Network Address Translation (NAT)
implementation did not ensure that data structures were initialized when
