Hi,

About: https://www.kde.org/info/security/advisory-20161006-1.txt

I tried to backport the CVE-2016-7966 fix commit to kf 5.26 and it didn't 
apply cleanly, it would be nice if the advisory includes the list of the 
commits to backport, or maybe a new 5.26.1 kcoreaddons bugfix release.

Via irc you mentioned that non qtwebengine versions are affected by this as 
well, that contradict the versions listed in the advisory message. As you 
know, we are currently using qt 5.6 and messagelib from 16.04, which set of 
patches should we include?

Happy hacking,
