It's also reported against the wrong package.  Userland should not be
able to trigger a system freeze, so this is a bug in a kernel
component.  Assuming that you're using libvirt to manage KVM/QEMU or
LXC then it's the kernel package (linux-image-4.14.0-0.bpo.4-amd64).

Many thanks for this. I am managing 2 KVM/QEMU guests.

Indeed, when I reboot to 4.9.0-6 from stretch then the libvirt* packges upgrade cleanly.

Note I am also running systemd and systemd-sysv 237-3~bpo9+1 amd64.

Running 4.14.0-0.bpo.4 `systemctl disable cups-browsed` also hard freezes the machine.

Running 4.9.0-6 that does not happen, the service is successfully disabled.

Here is the output of the freeze I could still copy from a tmux session:
