Is there a way to review CVE-2016-10009 priority in Ubuntu?

According to https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2016-10009/ it has CVSS
Score of 7.5 (High) and is easily exploitable. It is a remote code
execution vulnerability in one of the components (openssh server) that
are commonly exposed to outside world.

Currently no LTS version of Ubuntu is PCI DSS compliant because this bug
is not fixed. As using a non-LTS version on production servers might not
be an option for many companies this renders Ubuntu server unusable for
them.

Ignoring a remote code execution vulnerability with CVSS score of 7.5 is
bad security practice unless there is a reason that makes the
vulnerability unusable as provided in #3 for other CVEs.
