Yes, I agree.
I would like to know: - local or remote exploitable - if a DoS: hang, only service failure, major slowdown - privilege escalation possiible and how far (valid user, root, kernel-level) - required privileges (root or user)
That would help risk management a lot :-)
If you have a lot of time: Affected software components, but these can be taken from the patches/commit info or CVE.
Thanks & Regards
