Adding autopkgtests for CVEs
Hi -lts,
I recently had some success adding an autopkgtest for a CVE and
thought I might share:
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?att=1;bug=874059;filename=874059.diff.txt;msg=29
You generate the uuencode input with "uuencode -m -".
Note that I added a "smoke test" for the non-CVE-related
codepaths; if I just tested whether the reproducer was rejected,
this could mask that I broke the regular operation of the package.
Best wishes,
