Bug description:
  From the Debian bug report at
  https://www.debian.org/security/2018/dsa-4085:

      Philip Huppert discovered the Shibboleth service provider is
  vulnerable to impersonation attacks and information disclosure due to
  mishandling of DTDs in the XMLTooling XML parsing library. For
  additional details please refer to the upstream advisory at
  https://shibboleth.net/community/advisories/secadv_20180112.txt

      For the oldstable distribution (jessie), this problem has been
  fixed in version 1.5.3-2+deb8u2.

      The stable distribution (stretch) is not affected.

      We recommend that you upgrade your xmltooling packages.

      For the detailed security status of xmltooling please refer to its
  security tracker page at: https://security-
