Log:
Mark CVE-2017-17718 as ignored in wheezy/jessie

The documentation of the ruby-net-ldap module in wheezy/jessie
states that no SSL/TLS validation is done, neither for the
certificate signature nor for the associated hostname.

This CVE is only about newer versions which dropped this
part of the documentation when in fact only the certificate
signature is checked, and not the associated hostname.
