Thank you for using Ubuntu and taking the time to report a bug. While you are correct that this issue is more than a DoS, we normally do not update USN text based on new exploit information (it is way too time-consuming and would remain hopelessly out of date). Additionally, while incomplete, the USN currently describes a high impact vulnerability for users of SCTP (a remotely triggerable DoS) which would compel SCTP users to upgrade their kernels anyway.
