Bug#923889: google-compute-image-packages - DoS via serial console write



Package: google-compute-image-packages
Version: 20190124-2
Severity: grave

This package instructs journald to duplicate everything sent to the
journal to the serial console.  The serial console is a pretty rate
limited log output device and blocking there will make all software with
any log output block.
