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,
