Hi,

attached is a patch that adds manual DLA/DSA id override support if an
upload tackles a regression already announce via an earlier DSA/DLA.

Current use case / example:

  xorg-server <ver>+deb6u1 (DLA-120-1) fixed CVE-2014-8092
  xorg-server <ver>+deb6u2 (DLA-218-1) fixed some other CVE (irrelevant here)
  xorg-server <ver>+deb6u3 (DLA-120-2) fixes CVE-2015-3418 (regression of
                           fix for CVE-2014-8092)

At the moment: when using bin/genDLA like this:

  $ bin/gen-DLA  --save xorg-server regression CVE-2015-3418

.... the script will create a follow-DLA for 218-1 (i.e., 218-2). Whereas
the correct/wanted DLA id would be 120-2.

The attached patch allows one to specify the DLA id to follow up on with
the "regression" keyword. Thus, with the patch applied, I can do this:

  $ bin/gen-DLA  --save xorg-server regression:120-1 CVE-2015-3418

.... which then will provide me with a DLA-120-2 mail template and put
the prepared upload of my xorg-server package into data/DLA/list.

What could be added:

  o check, if the manual specified override exists and is for the same package

light+love,
Mike

Hi Mike,

Thanks.

I don't think so, this is rather clear:

$ ./bin/gen-DLA 
usage: ./bin/gen-DLA [--save] [--embargoed|--unembargo] [DLA] package 
[regression] [cve(s) [bugnumber(s)]]
       'DLA' is the DLA number, required when issuing a revision

(same for gen-DSA)


Thus closing, thanks.


cheers,
	Holger
