+collectd (5.5.2-1) UNRELEASED; urgency=medium
+
+ * New upstream release.
+ - Fix heap overflow in the network plugin. Emilien Gaspar has identified a
+ heap overflow in parse_packet(), the function used by the network plugin
+ to parse incoming network packets. Thanks to Florian Forster for
+ reporting the bug in Debian. (Closes: #832507, CVE-2016-6254)
+ - Fix improper usage of gcry_control. A team of security researchers at
+ Columbia University and the University of Virginia discovered that
+ GCrypt's gcry_control is sometimes called without checking its return
+ value for an error. This may cause the program to be initialized without
+ the desired, secure settings. (Closes: #832577)
