Thanks for this usefull comment indeed! So yes I agree we probably can
just ignore the issue, and mark it as resolved once as well fixed
sourcwise with a 3.0.0 or later upload, but do not need to handle it
explicitly otherwise.

I have already marked the CVE now in the security-tracker as
unimportant.

Thank you!
