If 375.66 fixes the problem, it might be just your lucky day!

CVEs have been revealed and they are fixed by that version, so I have
now uploaded it to unstable. Due to the security implications I've
requested the release team to allow it to migrate to testing as well,
and after that happens we will upload to jessie-backports too.

It will take a few days to a couple of weeks to happen.

Kind regards,
