Agreed. I suggest to mark all CVE for unbound in Stretch as end-of-life. This was already announced in May 2020 and we shouldn't change that retrospectively. The introduction of a new source package unbound1.9 was an exception due to a special request. In my opinion we should add unbound1.9 to dla-needed.txt and investigate which one of the current open CVE affect this version. I can take a look at it since I was responsible for the unbound1.9 upload anyway. > FTR, linux-4.19 is handled in the very similar way, we never add those > entries for "unstable" to data/CVE/list but Ben just fixes them in a > DLA accordingly.
