Hi Peter,

Thank you for providing the details.

Based on the information regarding the vulnerability report and the commit 
history provided, it appears that our code is indeed vulnerable as the commit 
introducing the vulnerability still exists in our codebase.

Our util-linux version in the kirkstone branch is v2.37.4, and the vulnerable 
code was introduced in commit cdd3cc7fa4 back in 2013.

I've also noted that Debian is also fixing the CVE, along with the dependent 
commits mentioned in the offending commits list. They have already added 
upstream patches to address CVE-2024-28085 (839ff33b), as detailed in their 
commit here:  
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/util-linux/-/commit/839ff33b8002189411b679cc9ee99d1a99e099cb.

Please review the provided information, and let me know if there's anything 
else we need to consider.

Best Regards,
Soumya

Identical patch was already submitted and then requested to be ignored because 
the issue is apparently introduced by one of the added patches.

Since the vulnerability report claims that our version IS vulnerable, it would 
be interesting to know where the truth is...
https://github.com/skyler-ferrante/CVE-2024-28085 -> The vulnerable code was 
introduced in commit cdd3cc7fa4 (2013).
