Hi,

the following vulnerability was published for ocaml.

CVE-2017-9779[0]:
| OCaml compiler allows attackers to have unspecified impact via unknown
| vectors, a similar issue to CVE-2017-9772 "but with much less impact."

This is the secondary, lesser critical issue affecting as well older
versions as mentioned in [1] and [2]. Can you get in touch with
upstream to identify the required patch.

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
