Working on 2.6.1, but I need to get broker (and a new upstream versio
nof actor-framework) into unstable first. Working on that, too.

So that didn't work out -- bro/2.6.1 is still sitting in NEW, along with
some of its build-dependencies. :-(

I don't know yet if or when I'll be able to backport fixes for the
outstanding CVE-worthy bugs.

Cheers,
-Hilko

With buster being in full freeze, can you backport CVE-2018-17019 and
CVE-2018-16807 to 2.5.5, please?

Cheers,

It's a pity that this did not work out...

Yes, I'll try. Thanks for reminding me.
