(Impacts cacti versions that recently embedded that library for
security fixes.)

names to older ELTS packages (golang*, php*, python*, tomcat*,
unbound*)

- Triage or precise triage for <10 CVEs and packages
- Internal discussion on binutils/libiberty supportability

wordpress, leading to multiple e-mail alerts per hour

Documentation and tooling
- Internal discussion on handling/prioritizing work on bookworm and
above, outside of LTS perimeter, but impacting future LTS suites.
