Ubuntu vulnerability list: https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2016/CVE-2...

(TL;DR: Ubuntu 16.10 (Yakkety Yak) is listed as "needs triage", no other releases are affected (14.04/16.04/etc))

Actually, Ubuntu 16.10 is listed as not-affected (4.8.0-11.12).

The "needs triage" you're seeing for Ubuntu 16.10 is for the "linux-goldfish" and "linux-flo" kernel packages for specific android devices.
