[ Reason ] Fix TOCTOU race condition vulnerabilities in filelock: CVE-2025-68146 and CVE-2026-22701. [ Impact ] Local attackers may exploit a race condition when creating lock files. [ Tests ] The vulnerable code paths were tested with the proposed patches applied. [ Risks ] The changes are limited to lock file creation logic and backport upstream fixes. The risk is low. [ Checklist ] [x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable [ Changes ] Import and backport upstream patches for CVE-2025-68146 and CVE-2026-22701. [ Other info ] @satta has reviewed this backport and will sponsor it.
