Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for systemd.

CVE-2021-3997[0]:
| Uncontrolled recursion in systemd's systemd-tmpfiles

Note while the issue while present before is exploitable only after
upstream commit e535840, and as such can be ignored for buster and
older. For bullseye it would be ideal to get a fix (via a point
release?).

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
