Package        : netmask
Version        : 2.3.12+deb8u1
Debian Bug     : 921565

A buffer overflow was found in netmask which would crash when called
with arbitrarily long inputs.

For Debian 8 "Jessie", this problem has been fixed in version
2.3.12+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your netmask packages.
