referenced in the USN-4778-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that OCaml mishandled sign extensions. A remote attacker could use this vulnerability to
    steal sensitive information, cause a denial of service (crash), or possibly execute arbitrary code. This
    issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 ESM. (CVE-2015-8869)
