    Package : jansson
    CVE ID : CVE-2016-4425
    Debian Bug : 823238

    Gustavo Grieco discovered that jansson, a C library for encoding,
    decoding and manipulating JSON data, did not limit the recursion depth
    when parsing JSON arrays and objects. This could allow remote attackers
    to cause a denial of service (crash) via stack exhaustion, using crafted
    JSON data.

    For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.7-1+deb8u1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.7-5.

    We recommend that you upgrade your jansson packages.
