This is really temporary, the 009184 part changes with each commit,
basically.

This should work if there's a Debian bug report recorded in the
tracker. In that case, the bug number is used instead of the sequence
of zeros, and this continues to work after the CVE has been assigned:
<http://security-tracker.debian.net/tracker/TEMP-328136>
There has been some talk to use a shortened hash of the bug
description, but this hasn't been implemented yet.
