+
+<p>A privilege escalation vulnerability vulnerability was discovered in
+<a href="http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/">Net-SNMP</a>, a set of tools for
+collecting and organising information about devices on computer networks.</p>
+
+<p>Upstream notes that:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>It is still possible to enable this MIB via the <tt>--with-mib-modules</tt>
+configure option.</li>
+
+<li>Another MIB that provides similar functionality, namely
+<tt>ucd-snmp/extensible</tt>, is disabled by default.</li>
+
+<li>The security risk of <tt>ucd-snmp/pass</tt> and
+<tt>ucd-snmp/pass_persist</tt> is lower since these modules only introduce a
+security risk if the invoked scripts are exploitable.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>For Debian 9 <q>Stretch</q>, these problems have been fixed in version
+5.7.3+dfsg-1.7+deb9u2.</p>
+
+<p>We recommend that you upgrade your net-snmp packages.</p>
+
+<p>Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply
+these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
+found at: <a href="https://wiki.debian.org/LTS">https://wiki.debian.org/LTS</a></p>
