Source: libnsbmp
Severity: serious
Hello,
libnsbmp has not seen a maintainer upload ever since its addition to
Debian in 2009.
Recently two CVE [1] have been reported against this package and I wonder
why we have this package in Debian at all.
[1] https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/libnsbmp
There are no reverse dependencies, maybe netsurf used this library at some
point but that seems to no longer be the case.
If you agree with me please clone this bug against ftp.debian.org and
retitle it as "RM: libnsbmp -- ROM; unused library package".
In the mean time I file this as severity serious so that the package gets
dropped from testing given its unmaintained state.
Thank you!
