In the meantime, I have updated my PPA with working fixes (I tested each in a fresh VM; they work as intended and fix the security issue) for Xenial and Artful.
Security Team, feel free to copy my packages to your PPA: https://launchpad.net/~tsimonq2/+archive/ubuntu/security-test-builds/+sourcepub/8981311/+listing-archive-extra https://launchpad.net/~tsimonq2/+archive/ubuntu/security-test-builds/+sourcepub/8981308/+listing-archive-extra The diffs for each are on that page if you would like to do it manually. Please sponsor each to go into Ubuntu.
