Ubuntu 12.04 Privilege Escalation

How it was found

Hello Security Team,

Description According to its self-reported version number, the Unix operating system running on the remote host is no longer supported.

Lack of support implies that no new security patches for the product will be released by the vendor. As a result, it is likely to contain security vulnerabilities. Solution Upgrade to a version of the Unix operating system that is currently supported.

Best Regard!
