Package: reportbug
Version: 3.31
Followup-For: Bug #372720

I just reported #484305 and added there:

I set Severity to "critical" instead of "grave", because the user who
reported the traceback to me on a multi-user system does not use
bicyclerepair, but just vim. Reportbug forced me to set "root security
hole", because everyone using vim is affected (including root) and
the Justification 5 "unknown / something else" would downgrade the
Severity to "normal". The description for "grave" said, that it only
applies if the security problem affects people actually using the package.


The output of etch's reportbug:

critical: ... introduces a security hole on systems where you install the
              package.

grave: ... introduces a security hole allowing access to the accounts of
           users who use the package.

unknown: not sure, or none of the above
