2.4.3-2~bpo10+1 means this is based on upstream version 2.4.3, second revision for Debian (-2), backport to Debian 10 (~bpo10), first iteration of the backport (+1). The changelog (in ~doc/haproxy/changelog.Debian.gz) gives a hint of the deviation compared to official upstream version: haproxy (2.4.3-2~bpo10+1) buster-backports; urgency=medium * Rebuild for buster-backports. -- Vincent Bernat <ber...@debian.org> Sat, 04 Sep 2021 15:19:43 +0200 haproxy (2.4.3-2) experimental; urgency=high * d/patches: fix missing header name length check in HTX (CVE-2021-40346). -- Vincent Bernat <ber...@debian.org> Sat, 04 Sep 2021 11:56:31 +0200 haproxy (2.4.3-1~bpo10+1) buster-backports; urgency=medium * Rebuild for buster-backports. -- Vincent Bernat <ber...@debian.org> Sat, 21 Aug 2021 16:47:45 +0200 haproxy (2.4.3-1) experimental; urgency=medium * New upstream release. * d/patches: remove patches applied upstream. * d/patches: h2: match absolute-path not path-absolute for :path. -- Vincent Bernat <ber...@debian.org> Sat, 21 Aug 2021 16:32:25 +0200 Debian packages are not based on 2.4.4 because they were prepared in advance to be ready when the vulnerability is announced. Packages based on 2.4.4 will get available later this week. -- Instrument your programs. Measure before making "efficiency" changes. - The Elements of Programming Style (Kernighan & Plauger)
