Updated quassel packages fix security vulnerability: It was found that quasselcore is vulnerable to a denial of service attack by unauthenticated clients. The protocol negotiation did not take into account lack of a match in handshake data, in which case PeerFactory::createPeer returns a nullptr, which is immediately dereferenced (CVE-2016-4414).
