Thanks for the information. I backported the upstream fix to the version
in stretch and I'm currently in the process of building the package
(takes several hours). How do you want me to proceed if the package
builds fine and testing does not result in any errors?

This may lead to a crash of the RGW process if sent a malformed HTTP
header which could result in a denial of service. Does this warrant an
upload to security or should this only be fixed via a stable point
release? Do you want to review the debdiff before the upload? The
debdiff of the test package I'm currently building is attached to this
mail.

FYI RGW is the part of Ceph which implements the Amazon S3 API on top of
the Ceph distributed storage.
