Package: ferm Version: 2.5-1.1 Severity: serious Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer,
Ferm got updated from v2.4 to v2.5, which brought a regression of @ipfilter() function, when used, resulting in an error. I believe the serious severity is warranted. The error makes it so that ferm doesn't apply any rules, so if you rely on ferm to setup firewall rules, your system would be unprotected. It might also break other software on the system which rely on the rules to be present. My particular issue is detailed in the upstream bug tracker https://github.com/MaxKellermann/ferm/issues/71. It looks like it was already fixed in master https://github.com/MaxKellermann/ferm/commit/cea364a246f6988c6dc7f1603586f58c11b7dc28, but the fix hasn't made it into any release yet.
