Odd no one asked for that one to be backported before :(

Anyway, now applied, thanks.

Not entirely surprising. The patch is from July 2017, it wasn't marked
for stable, and the CVE has been created only recently (04/13/2018).
CVE severity and the reference to the upstream commit were added
yesterday, which caused our CVE tracker to barf at me.

Who applied for the CVE number?  They should have been the ones to
notify people of the issue, so who should I go kick about this?  :)

thanks,
