Title:
depends on libwebkitgtk3 which doesn't have security support
Status in zenity package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Status in zenity package in Debian:
Fix Released
Bug description:
libgwebkitgtk and libwebkitgtk3 are not maintained upstream and contain 100s
of active CVEs.
It sure would be great if users of large DEs that depend on Zenity could
opt-out on those CVEs...

Because zenity might not be dealing with untrusted HTML content,
I'm not flagging this one with "security"
For those that didn't know DANGEROUS packages may be shipped:
You can use the package "debian-security-support", it'll tell you
automatically.
