Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'linux-azure' package(s) announced via the USN-5652-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that the framebuffer driver on the Linux kernel did not
verify size limits when changing font or screen size, leading to an out-of-
bounds write. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2021-33655)

Domingo Dirutigliano and Nicola Guerrera discovered that the netfilter
subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle rules that truncated
packets below the packet header size. When such rules are in place, a
remote attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service
(system crash). (CVE-2022-36946)

Affected Software/OS:
'linux-azure' package(s) on Ubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu 16.04.

Solution:
