Free software activities in June 2016

Here is my monthly update covering a large part of what I have been doing in the free software world (previously):


Debian

My work in the Reproducible Builds project was covered in our weekly reports. (#58, #59 & #60)


Debian LTS


This month I have been paid to work 18 hours on Debian Long Term Support (LTS). In that time I did the following:

  • "Frontdesk" duties, triaging CVEs, etc.
  • Extended the lts-cve-triage.py script to ignore packages that are not subject to Long Term Support.

  • Issued DLA 512-1 for mantis fixing an XSS vulnerability.
  • Issued DLA 513-1 for nspr correcting a buffer overflow in a sprintf utility.
  • Issued DLA 515-1 for libav patching a memory corruption issue.
  • Issued DLA 524-1 for squidguard fixing a reflected cross-site scripting vulnerability.
  • Issued DLA 525-1 for gimp correcting a use-after-free vulnerability in the channel and layer properties parsing process.

Uploads

  • redis (2:3.2.1-1) — New upstream bugfix release, plus subsequent upload to the backports repository.
  • python-django (1.10~beta1-1) — New upstream experimental release.
  • libfiu (0.94-5) — Misc packaging updates.
