"The linux-base package has been updated to support the package of
Linux 4.9 that was recently added to Debian 8. This resolves a
dependency that was not satisfiable by the jessie and jessie-security
suites.
This update also fixes a bug in version ordering in the linux-version
command, corrects the package name printed by the perf command when
linux-perf-4.9 is needed, and adds bash-completion support for the
perf command.
For Debian 8 'Jessie', the new version is 4.5~deb8u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your linux-base packages.
NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description
block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues."
