Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for storebackup.

CVE-2020-7040[0]:
|storeBackup: denial of service and symlink attack vector via fixed
|lockfile path /tmp/storeBackup.lock

The RC severity per se is a bit exagerated for the issue, but given
the package is orphaned we should be careful on including the package
in bullseye.

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
