    Package : cvs
    CVE ID : CVE-2017-12836
    Debian Bug : 871810

    It was discovered that CVS, a centralised version control system, did
    not correctly handle maliciously constructed repository URLs, which
    allowed an attacker to run an arbitrary shell command.

    For the oldstable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed
    in version 2:1.12.13+real-15+deb8u1.

    For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2:1.12.13+real-22+deb9u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your cvs packages.
