==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
– Ubuntu 17.04

origin of modal alerts, bypass same origin restrictions, read
uninitialized memory, cause a denial of service via program crash or hang,
or execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2017-7753, CVE-2017-7779, CVE-2017-7780,
