This automatic mail gives an overview over security issues that were recently
fixed in Debian Testing. The majority of fixed packages migrate to testing
from unstable. If this would take too long, fixed packages are uploaded to the
testing-security repository instead. It can also happen that vulnerable
packages are removed from Debian testing.
