Hi,

CVE-2017-12173[0]:
unsanitized input when searching in local cache database

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.

Please adjust the affected versions in the BTS as needed, and
unfortuantely at time of writing, I have not found any furhter

Any ideas? Is there an upstream issue to track?
