Jessie update of ssvnc?



Dear maintainer(s),

The Debian LTS team would like to fix the security issues which are
currently open in the Jessie version of ssvnc:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-20020
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-20021
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-20022
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2018-20024

These security issues have recently become known while looking
into all Debian packages that bundle some or another version
of code originally derived from the libvncserver source package.

I will soon send a .debdiff to the Debian bugtracker that resolves above
named issues for ssvnc in Debian jessie. The patches should be easily
forward-portable to ssvnc in stretch, buster and testing/unstable.

Would you like to take care of the jessie LTS upload yourself?

If yes, please follow the workflow we have defined here:
https://wiki.debian.org/LTS/Development

If that workflow is a burden to you, feel free to just review the
proposed fixes in the source package and give feedback, if there is any.
I, with my LTS team member hat on, will take care of the upload then.

If you don't want to take care of this update at all, it's not a problem,
we will do our best with your package. Just let us know whether you would
like to review and/or test the updated package before it gets released.

You can also opt-out from receiving future similar emails in your
answer and then the LTS Team will take care of ssvnc updates
for the LTS releases.

Thank you very much.

Mike Gabriel,
  on behalf of the Debian LTS team.

any point in time. You can verify whether someone is registered
