Dpkg in xenial-proposed now depends on libzstd, but it has open CVEs:
https://ubuntu.com/security/cve?q=&package=libzstd

As I understand dpkg is not affected because it does not use the zstd
command and does not implement compression.

To not introduce CVE-2021-24031 and CVE-2021-24032 the zstd binary
package could be kept in universe like in later releases.
