Hi Joseph - thanks for the report. We are aware of this CVE and have
triaged it in the Ubuntu CVE Tracker:

  https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-
security/cve/2016/CVE-2016-7953.html

We have it rated as a 'low' which means that it will not be fixed in our
stable Ubuntu releases unless there's a medium or higher issue found
against libxvmc. This is to minimize regression risks for low impact
security issues.

** Information type changed from Private Security to Public Security

** Changed in: libxvmc (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Triaged

** Changed in: libxvmc (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Low
