Yes, we have not yet replied to it, saw the mail but there were more
pressing issues to work on, sorry about that. A bit orthogonal to the
choosen severity for this bug to make it land in bullseye, my gut
feeling here is that we might just let the fix go in via an upcoming
point release, instead of fixing it via a DSA.

Thank you sounds like a good plan and asw the pre-approval unblock
request happened already, so thank you.

Right.

I contacted team@security.d.o a about the issue, including a proposed
hivex/1.3.18-1+deb10u1 for stable-security a few days ago, but I'm not
aware of getting an answer.

Preparing a request for pre-approval/unblocking of 1.3.20-1 for the
release team now.
