Hi,
Security issue CVE-2017-2636 (severity 7.8) has been disclosed and the fix has
been provided for Jessie and Wheezy. The problem is that there's as of now no
fix available for sid and stretch while things become more and more critical
due to the severity of the issue.
Kernel 4.9.15 contains a fix for this. Could you please integrate it ASAP on
Stretch ?
Thanks in advance.
