Yes, it's short, but you could take a picture or even rm -rf / if there happened to be a root console available. [Regression Potential] An improper implementation of the fix for this issue could result in an indefinite hang during system shutdown, or could result in the problem not being completely fixed and the security vulnerability continuing. Neither appear to be the case. [ Other Info ] The Ubuntu 14.04 LTS SRU has been cherry-picked from upstream Unity where it has been in development-level production code in Ubuntu 'Vivid Vervet' development release for a few months and has not display additional problems.
