Out of curiosity, why are you keeping a patch which is considered "full
of bugs" by upstream?

Note that Debian picked the patch from the Redhat bugtracker:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=644289#15

But Redhat has been much more conservative since they prefered to leave
the bug open rather than applying a patch refused by upstream:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=742891#c6

Is this CVE so serious that it is worse introducing bugs?

Best,
