The current version in the repository is 4.05.0 (released on Jul 12, 2017), please update ocaml to the current upstream version 4.06.1 (released on Feb 16, 2018). Starting with version 4.06.0 a bug has been fixed in 4.05.0 that could also be considered security related. Excerpt from the change log: https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml/blob/81dc8e8fcf923baa5e5208f9bc4228930c7c3d56/Changes OCaml 4.06.0 (3 Nov 2017): ... MPR#7640, GPR#1414: reimplementation of Unix.execvpe to fix issues with the 4.05 implementation. The main issue is that the current directory was always searched (last), even if the current directory is not listed in the PATH. (I'm sorry if this is not the correct category for this bug, after a few minutes looking around I didn't find it entirely clear where to submit update request type bugs for packages. As it could be considered somewhat security related, I submitted it here. Thanks.)
