Bug#932272: [debian-installer] Shasums of "other image" variants (hd-media, netboot etc.) not signed



Package: debian-installer
Severity: important
Tags: security

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

Images for system installation need to be checkable against
tampering, otherwise breaking any security chain.
That's why Debian CD-Images come with sha*sums which are signed by
Debian CD signing keys (https://www.debian.org/CD/verify).

This is not the case for all "other images" (hd-media, netboot).
They're official ways of installing Debian, being mentioned in
the install manual:
https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/ch04s02.de.html#where-files

Is there a way to make sure one gets something officially released by
Debian when using these install media?

Bye
Michael
