Joseph Witt commented on NIFI-2798:
-----------------------------------

I don't believe we distribute or have a relationship to the C client.  If that is the case it doesn't apply to us and seems like it can be marked as WONTFIX.

> The currently used version of Zookeeper {{3.4.6}} is subject to a buffer overflow attack using the C command-line interface (documented as CVE-2016-5017 [1]). Version {{3.4.9}} patches this issue. In {{nifi/pom.xml}}, this version number should be updated, and basic compatibility/smoke tests should be run to ensure no new issues are introduced by the version increment.
