Bug#884816: RFS: frontaccounting/2.4.3-1 [ITA]



Control: tags -1 -moreinfo -unreproducible

Could you please followup on the security issue in the actual bug report
(#890604)? This is the RFS, and I doubt you meant to mark the
sponsorship request as "unreproducible". :)

That said, I'm just a messenger: I wanted to make sure you were aware of
the security issues and considered it seriously. You might want to send
the same message to the bug report, and CC security@debian.org to make
sure the security issue is filed properly.

Thanks!

A.
