Thanks for this usefull comment indeed! So yes I agree we probably can
just ignore the issue, and mark it as resolved once as well fixed
sourcwise with a 3.0.0 or later upload, but do not need to handle it
explicitly otherwise.

I have already marked the CVE now in the security-tracker as
unimportant.

Thank you!

Regards,
Salvatore

It should be possible to enable the license system on the packaged 
version but it makes no sense to do so since you would end-up quitting 
on all the extra tests that are not opensourced (only in the enterprise 
version). The central server also is not packaged for this reason. That 
is to say I believe this bug can completely be ignored.
