Why this priority?

Description

Multiple integer signedness errors in net/rose/af_rose.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36-rc5-next-20100923 allow local users to cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a rose_getname function call, related to the rose_bind and rose_connect functions.

From the Ubuntu Security Team

Dan Rosenberg discovered that the ROSE driver did not correctly check parameters. A local attacker with access to a ROSE network device could exploit this to crash the system or possibly gain root privileges.
