Package: libdkim
Version: 1:1.0.21-3
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

The IETF recently published updated guidance on minimum RSA key sizes for use
with DKIM[1].  I decided to check in Debian to see what packages might need to
be updated as a result.  I've looked and I can't find where libdkim checks the
key size at all.  This is a security concern since it allows trivially
factorable keys to produce apparently valid signatures (just last year I ran
into a consulting client with a 384 bit key that was surprised his DKIM wasn't
working very well anymore).

Given this looks pretty dead upstream and only has one user, I'm not sure what
the best approach to resolve this is, but I do think it's concerning.
