Source: cloud-init
Version: 20.4.1-2+deb11u1
Severity: important
Cloud-init has the ability to generate apt sources when provisioning a system.
It does this based on a template installed at
/etc/cloud/templates/sources.list.debian.tmpl. The template currently in
bullseye results in an incorrect sources.list configuration for a couple of
reasons:
1. The security repository is incorrect, resulting in a system that's not
configured to install security updates by default.
2. The bullseye-backports repository is enabled by default, but it no longer
exists.
