Bug Description
Binary package hint: lua5.1
There are various bugs in Lua 5.1.3 with security implications. See
Since Lua 5.1.x releases only fix bugs in Lua 5.1, this bug should also be considered for updates to other currently supported releases. Individual patches for all bugs are given on the above page, so it would also be possible just to patch those bugs considered serious enough to merit it.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It's not clear to me what fixes were security-relevant. Were there CVEs issues for the lua fixes?
