We received various details on bugs already. The normal process is that
we forward this to the maintainer and it is fixed. There's nothing in
place when there's no maintainer. As release team, we thought it was
maybe better to have a few security people on [email protected].
However, we never actioned it and now have these bugs.

So one way to proceed would maybe be to some known opensuse security
person to [email protected], then setup Bugzilla permissions as well.

I'm guessing we should also add Red Hat / Fedora. We had people showing
interest quite a while ago.

Note: [email protected] was mainly used (until libsrvg) to either rant
or ask random support questions. Any security person can ignore those,
it'll be handled by release team. People sometimes email maintainers
directly, sometimes we're a post office.

Anyone who's interested probably should be willing to improve anything
that's lacking.
