+Ubuntu-Description:
+ A race condition was discovered between dnotify fcntl() and close() in
+ the kernel. If a local attacker performed malicious dnotify requests,
+ they could cause memory consumption leading to a denial of service,
+ or possibly send arbitrary signals to any process.
+Notes:
+ kees> ABI changer due to header addition?
