SECURITY: Fix an out of-bound read access in the packet handling code.
Reported by Ben Hawkes
https://anongit.mindrot.org/openssh.git/commit/?id=2fecfd486bdba9f51b3a789277bb0733ca36e1c0

Use CVE-2016-1907.


There's also a fix related to X11 forwarding which seems different than
the fix which went into OpenSSH 6.9. I'm not sure if it deserves a CVE
or not.

https://anongit.mindrot.org/openssh.git/commit/?id=ed4ce82dbfa8a3a3c8ea6fa0db113c71e234416c

eliminate fallback from untrusted X11 forwarding to trusted forwarding
when the X server disables the SECURITY extension; Reported by Thomas
Hoger

MITRE is not assigning a CVE ID for
ed4ce82dbfa8a3a3c8ea6fa0db113c71e234416c at this time. First, the
(misspelled) reporter name suggests that the issue might have already
had a CVE ID assigned by Red Hat before the issue became public. Also,
http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.1p2 does not announce this as a
security fix. Finally, the wording suggests that it could possibly be
an interoperability fix, not a security fix.
