What do you think? Please see the attached debdiff.
The patch for CVE-2016-3659 is accepted by upstream, so should be OK to apply. The issue with CVE-2016-2313 has been resolved upstream, the sledgehammer has been replaced by an appropriate hammer for the size of the nail: https://github.com/Cacti/cacti/commit/6e5f3be49b3f52e30c88ec75a576f89bb72c4e52 I believe CVE-2016-2313 should be included in this fix. Please be advised that since my previous e-mail, I actually created a brute force regression test for cacti, see http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-cacti/cacti.git/tree/debian/tests/check-all-pages Paul
