Package : heimdal
CVE ID : CVE-2017-17439
Debian Bug : 878144

Michael Eder and Thomas Kittel discovered that Heimdal, an
implementation of Kerberos 5 that aims to be compatible with MIT
Kerberos, did not correctly handle ASN.1 data. This would allow an
unauthenticated remote attacker to cause a denial of service (crash of
the KDC daemon) by sending maliciously crafted packets.

For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in
version 7.1.0+dfsg-13+deb9u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your heimdal packages.

Package : nova
CVE ID : CVE-2017-16239
Debian Bug : 882009

George Shuklin from servers.com discovered that Nova, a cloud
computing fabric controller, did not correctly enforce its image- or
hosts-filters. This allowed an authenticated user to bypass those
filters by simply rebuilding an instance.

For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in
version 2:14.0.0-4+deb9u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your nova packages.
