Bug Description
According to http://
I think this update should be pushed ASAP to all support Ubuntu releases as a security update.
It seems so far only CVE-2017-5753 (variant 1) has been addressed and a future NVIDIA update will also address CVE-2017-5715 (variant 2)
Please note there is also a updated version 390.12 for the R390 branch in case that is also provided somewhere.
