+The “barren and lifeless” release.
+
+Security fixes:
+
+• Do not treat ActivationFailure message received from root-owned systemd
+ name as a format string. In principle this is a security vulnerability,
+ but we do not believe it is exploitable in practice, because only
+ privileged processes can own the org.freedesktop.systemd1 bus name, and
+ systemd does not appear to send activation failures that contain "%".
+
+ Please note that this probably *was* exploitable in dbus versions
+ older than 1.6.30, 1.8.16 and 1.9.10 due to a missing check which at
+ the time was only thought to be a denial of service vulnerability
+ (CVE-2015-0245). If you are still running one of those versions,
+ patch or upgrade immediately.
