Hello,
This is my August 2024 monthly report for the Freexian LTS/ELTS [1] initiative.
Many thanks to Freexian and sponsors [2] for providing this opportunity!
LTS:
====
I did not engage in any LTS activities this month.
ELTS:
====
I spent my available time this month working on two packages: dnsmasq and
firmware-nonfree.
For dnsmasq:
* autopkgtest coverage backported from the main maintainer repository
* autopkgtest fixes for some additional tests that were previously in the LTS
repository
* An ELA was released [3].
For firmware-nonfree:
* initial work to fix 3 CVEs for Buster, CVE-2023-35061, CVE-2023-47210 and
CVE-2023-38417.
* a few changes have been committed in the LTS dedicated repository [4]
* the package was built and remains in the staging area [5] for further testing
/ review before moving on with the ELA.
regards.
