[FRIAM] alternative response

> Ha! 14648!

That explains a LOT.  A DOS attack against FriAM
<https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2018/CVE-2018-14648.html>,
leading to excess CPU consumption...

    Description
    A flaw was found in 389 Directory Server. A specially crafted search
    query
    could lead to excessive CPU consumption in the do_search() function. An
    unauthenticated attacker could use this flaw to provoke a denial of
    service.

I KNEW that the universe ran on Ubuntu

or is this just another one-to-many conflation?
