The vulnerability has been fixed by disabling nested namespace lookup entirely. supervisord will now only call methods on the object registered to handle XML-RPC requests and not any child objects it may contain, possibly breaking existing setups. No publicly available plugins are currently known that use nested namespaces. Plugins that use a single namespace will continue to work as before. Details can be found on the upstream issue at https://github.com/Supervisor/supervisor/issues/964 . For the oldstable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in version 3.0r1-1+deb8u1. For the stable distribution (stretch), this problem has been fixed in version 3.3.1-1+deb9u1. We recommend that you upgrade your supervisor packages.
