+5.7.3+dfsg-1.7+deb9u2 [Thu, 30 Jul 2020 11:50:04 +0100] Chris Lamb <lamby@debian.org>:
+
+  * Disable NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB support by default as it was possible to abuse
+    this Management Information Base for privilege escalation attacks.
+
+    Upstream notes:
+
+     - It is still possible to enable this MIB via the --with-mib-modules
+       configure option.
+
+     - Another MIB that provides similar functionality, namely
+       ucd-snmp/extensible, is disabled by default.
+
+     - The security risk of ucd-snmp/pass and ucd-snmp/pass_persist is lower
+       since these modules only introduce a security risk if the invoked
+       scripts are exploitable.
+
+    (Closes: #965166)
