After looking closer, I believe the issue is not as bad in the 7. series
(as available in Sid/Stretch and Jessie) since one can’t go further down
than the logged in user directory on the webserver (there were more
safeguards than in the 8. series, that’s probably why upstream didn’t
care to get the fix backported). Preventing the scanning at the higher
level should still help in some usage.

And another one has just been shared, already fixed in 7.0.9~dfsg-1:

https://owncloud.org/security/advisory/?id=oc-sa-2015-018

I have not yet updated the tracker, since the CVE assignment is pending,
but maybe should I had a temporary entry?

I’ve updated the proposed package (debdiff attached), and I’m currently
testing the package on a production server.

This newly disclosed issue doesn’t look very good either, even if the
files_external application is not enabled by default (many people seem
to actually rely on it).

I know you’re not ownCloud experts, but on the other hand, I’m not a
security expert either, so I don’t really know if it actually deserves a
DSA on its own, or if it’s OK to just push it via pu, comments welcome.

If you want to issue a DSA, do you want me to revert the fix for
CVE-2015-4716 that is already in pu?

The other security issue (again, not yet updated the tracker, since the
CVE assignment is pending), has been fixed in php-smb 1.0.3a-1, this
package is not in Jessie, and the owncloud binary package distributed in
Debian does not contain this copy (since it uses the php-smb package
instead):
