I just dput x2goclient 4.0.3.1-4+deb8u1 to jessie-security shipping a fix
for regression with CVE-2019-14889/libssh

Does that need a DLA?

If yes, shall it be a regression DLA for DLA-2038-1/libssh? Or a new DLA
number?

In this case I would use a DLA-2038-2 regression update advisory, with
tracking the x2goclient source package and (important) not tracking
the CVE id. Its bit of an unsual case, but that is how it's then
usually handled. You can see DSA-4539-2 as re respective example.

So your entry would look like (data/DLA/list):

[$date] DLA-2038-2 x2goclient - regression update
        [jessie] - x2goclient $version

Salvatore

Done. Thanks!

Mike
