Public bug reported: According to the patch ACK mail, the patch for this CVE was only applied to releases later than Precise.
Therefore the kernel security test for this will fail. ====================================================================== FAIL: test_213_setscokopt_sndbufforce_negative_value (__main__.KernelSecurityTest) Ensure setsockopt(SO_SNDBUFFORCE) does not accept negative values (CVE-2016-9793) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "./test-kernel-security.py", line 2009, in test_213_setscokopt_sndbufforce_negative_value self.assertEquals(expected, rc, result + report) AssertionError: Got exit code 0, expected 1 2048 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: linux-image-3.2.0-120-generic 3.2.0-120.163 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-120.163-generic 3.2.79 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-120-generic x86_64 AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
