Hi Mike and LTS team,

The Debian LTS team would like to fix the security issues which are

Would you like to take care of this 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 prepare an
updated source package and send it to debian-lts@lists.debian.org
(via a debdiff, or with an URL pointing to the source package,
or even with a pointer to your packaging repository), and the members
of the LTS team will take care of the rest. Indicate clearly whether you
have tested the updated package or not.

I currently maintain libexif but am not a DD, so I can't upload the
binary packages as per your workflow.

I've prepared a debdiff covering all outstanding CVEs and two
instances of undefined behaviour.

Internal tests pass at build time. The patches are the same as those
used in Sid, as the upstream version has not changed.

Hope this helps. Please let me know if you need anything else. Feel
free to adjust the changelog.

Hugh

Awesome. Thanks for sending the .debdiff. Will look into it now.

Greets,
Mike
