If you consider this bug security relevant, I suggest to request a CVE identifier from Mitre to inform other vendors about the problem too. Debian bug #978744 sounds like a remote denial-of-service vulnerability. Another CVE should be requested for this one. https://cveform.mitre.org/ Regards, Markus
