Bug description:
  Xenial 16.04.3 LTS ships with jabberd2 version 2.3.4-1ubuntu2 (as of
  this report). This version is vulnerable to CVE-2017-10807, namely it
  allows "anonymous" SASL authentication even when that option is
  switched off in the configuration:

  ```
  Feb 06 13:34:24 dehost jabberd/c2s[2662]: [68] ANONYMOUS authentication succeeded: 097569a80f3845d6f94a102ca0222249fec72c91@xxxxxxxxxxx ::ffff:194.226.137.229:56570 TLS

  ```

  There is Debian bug #867032 for this vulnerability.

  Current upstream versions of jabberd2 are not vulnerable; in
  particular version 2.6.1-1 that ships with artful is _probably_ not
  vulnerable, so this report only applies to the LTS release.

  Apparently fixed by this upstream commit:
  https://github.com/jabberd2/jabberd2/commit/8416ae54ecefa670534f27a31db71d048b9c7f16
