CVE-2017-1000203 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2017-1000203): ROOT version 6.9.03 and below is vulnerable to an authenticated shell metacharacter injection in the rootd daemon resulting in remote code execution
@Maintainers please call for stabilization when ready. Thank you
Thanks. New releases of ROOT 5.34, 6.10, and 6.12 will be out soon (early December). When that happens, I will bump the packages and cleanup old versions.

ROOT 5.34 is no longer in the tree. ROOT 6.12/06 has been available for a while, and was just bumped to 6.14/00, so no affected versions are in the tree anymore. Since no stable version is in the tree, I think this bug can now be closed. I've reopened to let the security team confirm before closing.
