Re Comment #3 it appears this has triggered a new CVE-2016-7123 to be issued just based on this one line that Mark Sapiro wrote with no other confirmation than this launchpad bug #1614841, but I wonder if the latter CVE (CVE-2016-7123) is a duplicate of the old CVE-2011-0707, or a new separate issue. Haven't been able to find relevant information so far, and people are also wondering and reporting this elsewhere. <https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2011-0707/>

Related: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=212378 <- requesting FreeBSD to list CVE-2016-7123 as a new bug (note that FreeBSD already marked CVE-2016-6893 which covers a wider span of versions).
