Re: Wheezy update of wireshark?



Hi All,

Thank you for the upload, but I would have happily handled the CVE
since I have already prepared
other CVE-s for the next batch in the packaging repository.

I saw the email on my phone but I expected longer timeout for waiting
for my response.
There is also debian/README.Debian.security in the source which says
that only code injection vulnerabilities are fixed very quickly.

Were there any reason for handling the last CVE very quickly? I can
catch up with the changes in Jessie.

Cheers,
Balint
