Hi, the following vulnerability was published for systemd. CVE-2017-9217[0]: | systemd-resolved through 233 allows remote attackers to cause a denial | of service (daemon crash) via a crafted DNS response with an empty | question section. If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry. For further information see: [0] https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2017-9217 https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-9217 [1] https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/5998 [2] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/+bug/1621396 [3] https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1040614 Please adjust the affected versions in the BTS as needed. I think the version in jessie should not be affected; unless I'm wrong (and then please correct me) the resolved: DNS client stub resolver was only introduced post v216, and the issue maybe even later (post v219). But would be greatly appreciated if you can confirm that. Regards, Salvatore
