Fix for dnsmasq breakage

2018-07-02 Thread Nick Hall
The recent update to the dns-root-data package in jessie changed its format
which in causes dnsmasq to not be able to start up, which causes DNS
servers running dnsmasq to not work.

See debian bug # 858506 for more information for when this happened on
stretch.

The attached patch is taken from there and fixes the issue.

jetty CVE triage: jetty8 ignored?

2018-07-02 Thread Hugo Lefeuvre
Hi,

I just noticed that jetty8 is almost never marked as affected by issues
in jetty and jetty9. Is it intentional that jetty8 isn't listed whereas
jetty and jetty9 are ?

For example:
 - CVE-2018-12538: there is no obvious reason why jetty8 wouldn't be
   listed if jetty and jetty9 are.
 - CVE-2018-12536: there is no way to tell jetty8 isn't affected without
   doing some code analysis / at least trying to reproduce, and even so
   it would be better to list jetty8 and mark it not-affected.

... and many others. The number of issues "affecting" jetty8 is a lot
smaller than jetty/jetty9.

Regards,
 Hugo
