Those defaults should probably be set by Linux, hence marking linux package as 
affected.
With the systemd packaging dropping the new setting originating from systemd 
upstream Ubuntu's defaults become less secure in this area compared to other 
distros leaving upstream defaults applied, thus I also mark this bug as a 
public security issue.

** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Information type changed from Public to Public Security
