[CKAN-Security] Vulnerability in the WIld

[Tyler Kennedy]

Ah...right, that would make sense.

I don't believe velocity templates are ever enabled by default, but we
should probably double check. If any of our recommended versions do we
should post a notice (blog, twitter?).

I reached out to ARNES and they've taken down the particular servers
involved in this one, which is the IP the bitcoin miner is being served
from as well as the pool address it's connecting to.
