I'm not completely sure if I understand what you are aiming for. In
Debian itself we track it as
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-68005

I assume you wanted to add a note that in Debian the CVE is referenced
by https://bugs.debian.org/1144953 ? Then you can via
https://cveform.mitre.org ask to update references and add a reference
to the Debian bug as well.

Does this help?

Regards,
Salvatore
