Debian LTS and ELTS -- April 2026



Hi,

here are some remarks about my work during last month.

- node-tar (ELTS / LTS / OSPU/SPU/DSA)

DLA-4552-1 was released fixing CVE-2024-28863, CVE-2026-23745, CVE-
2026-24842, CVE-2026-26960, CVE-2026-29786, and CVE-2026-31802. Since
the maintainer beat me to a DSA candidate, but without some of the
patches I identified, I attempted to get in contact with them to
discuss these differnces before uploading the OSPU. Unfortunately, I
didn't receive a response yet. I have started to work on the Buster
upload.

- python-aiohttp (LTS)

I have fixes ready for 14 of the open CVEs, which leaves 3 remaining
issues to be dealt with before it can be uploaded.

- pypdf2 (LTS)

I went through multiple of the reports. My findings are that multiple
issues likely do not affect version 1.26.0 in Bullseye. However, due to
the heavy code changes between version 6, the version in which all of
the issues were fixed, and version 1.26, it is hard to say if the
remaining issues affect that version. And attenpting to verify it and
fix it, might be very time-consuming if even possible. Thus, IMHO, we
cannot properly support that version of pypdf2 in Bullseye. I am going
to open a Gitlab issue to have a discussion about the future support of
pypdf2.

- misc

I reviewed eamanu's release candidates of python-authlib, pyasn1, and
python-flask-httpauth.

As always, I put my findings in the security tracker where appropriate.
