Unfortunately the version in stable is too old to be able to connect to the
current Electrum servers due to protocol incompatibilities; thus I do not
think there is a need to backport this fix to stable (if you are still
using this version successfully, it is most likely on an offline machine
that is not vulnerable to this exploit).

Testing should be updated shortly as nothing blocks the migration from
unstable: https://qa.debian.org/excuses.php?package=electrum

Ok, I'll update the Debian Security Tracker accordingly, but we also should
remove the package in the next stable point release.
Can you please also file a bug? (reportbug release.debian.org -> "rm")

Cheers,

Does the same reasoning as well apply to the version in
oldstable/jessie? If so we might want to remove it from there as well
(just fill a second RM bug specific for the jessie version).

Salvatore

Done (#887415). The jessie version is too old to be affected by the
security issue, but otherwise has the same problem (cannot connect to the
network) as well as probably calculating fees for offline transacting that
are way too low for the current situation.
