Adding OSSG-coresec to get a wider perspective on this.

This is one of those bugs where it's difficult to backport the fix, since it changes established behavior and is therefore not really acceptable as a stable branch patch. If there is a workaround for icehouse/havana, then we can document it in a security note. If there isn't a workaround, we might want to backport the option, and default it to current behavior, and then issue an OSSN about the issue and how you can manually switch that option on.
