I though think we are mixing two CVEs here. The commit you references
for 214 was assigned a different CVE:

Cf. CVE-2014-9770 vs. CVE-2015-8842.

But I have added a note additionally to the no-dsa that it does not
affect jessie installations in practice to the security-tracker notes. 

Review welcome :-)

For referene the two CVE (which though are related):

https://security-tracker.debian.org/CVE-2014-9770
https://security-tracker.debian.org/CVE-2015-8842

It's a bit complex how MITRE has assigned the CVEs to the SuSE request
possibly. But the commits referenced for the two should reflect the
original assingment at
