Package : checkstyle
Version : 5.9-1+deb8u2

Security researchers from Snyk discovered that the fix for CVE-2019-9658
was incomplete. Checkstyle, a development tool to help programmers write
Java code that adheres to a coding standard, was still vulnerable to XML
External Entity (XXE) injection.

For Debian 8 "Jessie", this problem has been fixed in version
5.9-1+deb8u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your checkstyle packages.
