How to fix?

Upgrade Ubuntu:14.04 mysql-5.5 to version 5.5.37-0ubuntu0.14.04.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mysql-5.5 package and not the mysql-5.5 package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:14.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

Buffer overflow in client/mysql.cc in Oracle MySQL and MariaDB before 5.5.35 allows remote database servers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long server version string.
