USN-7064-1 fixed a vulnerability in nano. This update provides the
corresponding update for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
Original advisory details:
It was discovered that nano allowed a possible privilege escalation
through an insecure temporary file. If nano was killed while editing, the
permissions granted to the emergency save file could be used by an
attacker to escalate privileges using a malicious symlink.
