Bug#1138294: debian-security-support: mark some packages as non supported in bookworm LTS
Package: debian-security-support
Version: 1:14+2026.05.07
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-lts@lists.debian.org, Debian Security Team <team@security.debian.org>
As per the input from the security team (thanks a lot!), this is a list
of packages whose security support during the LTS period of bookworm is
too complex or unfeasible:
crypto libraries with a few limited rdeps and not really meaningful long
term support:
- mbedtls
- wolfssl
packages for which the security team issued a DSA for trixie-security,
but for which some significant vulnerabilities were found to tricky to
backport to bookworm:
- smb4k (https://bugs.debian.org/1136949)
- lxd
- opennds
completely inactive upstream with open security issues:
- mimetex
open security issues but no rdeps, so no real use (it was only added for
gitlab):
- ruby-saml
Cheers,
-- Santiago
