Let me test the new whitelist approach in unstable first. I intend to upload version 1.4.18 to unstable today. If there are no regressions we can just switch to the whitelist because this is the most secure one. On the other hand we can still keep adding problematic types to the blacklist for now which is not too difficult either. These workarounds are documented here: https://x-stream.github.io/security.html#workaround In my opinion we should not ignore the CVE but choose one of the two solutions going forward.
