I've added fixed version info to the debian security tracker [0].  You
will need to fix these issues in squeeze and lenny (via security
announcement or proposed-update) if you to eliminate that message from
your package page.  Follow [1] to send a ticket with the proposed fix
to the security team and they'll tell you what to do from there.

Best wishes,
Mike

 I found out that It would be needed to add, also, in debian/changelog
 the mention of this bug number.

 Just, hope this will help.

 Kind regards,

Sure. The changelog entry can be like this:

   due to a race condition (Closes: #624551, #602333).

Please also contact the security team, to coordinate a securty update
for them, as it seems that the versions in oldstable and stable are
affected by those CVEs, too.


Best regards,

How to close open security issues

2011-05-23 Thread Nikolaus Rath
Hello,

http://packages.qa.debian.org/f/fuse.html reports 4 open security
issues. I prepared an upload that fixes them, but how do I tell the
package tracking system that they are fixed? There seem to be no
associated debian BTS numbers.


Thanks,

   -Nikolaus

You can find the associated bug numbers on the individual CVEs:

http://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2010-3879 = #602333
http://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2011-0541 = #624551

http://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2011-0543 = #624551

Be sure to mention the CVE numbers in debian/changelog for the upload
that fixes them.
