Planned outage: Security Updates - 2018-01-04 8am EDT - Continued

[Tirloni, Giovanni]

A new set of packages, now with mitigation fixes at the virtualization layer, was just released.

I'm taking advantage of the late hour to apply these updates and reboot the IDRC servers again.

Sorry for the extremely short notice.
