I said nothing about local denial of service; perhaps you're thinking of a particular instance - I'm not. To rhetorically follow your line of discussion, you're happy to have remote exploits remain in the tree (i.e. promoted by Gentoo) if a package is marked stable and a patch isn't available? The point about p.masking (rather than removal) is that we have then made reasonable efforts to inform the user and give them the opportunity to decide what they want to do, based on their own security policy - which could be to unmask locally and continue regardless, or could be to remove the package and try something else. That way they'd be making informed decisions. I think if we're to promote packages that have security issues on an arch, we need to be very clear that we're not making reasonable efforts to ensure that arch is free of known exploits. -- Kevin F.

The term "promote" is perhaps a little bit exaggerated, but a vulnerabilities monitoring is useful only if it's exhaustive - so far as possible. If, say, 5% of security weaknesses are voluntarily kept in portage, that means that the security concerned users can't rely on GLSAs and package.mask: they should rely on their own security vulnerabilities monitoring, and that means we've failed. But a "temporary masking GLSA" which would not cover all arches may be acceptable, without abuse. I still prefer see vulnerable packages in p.mask with a 2-lines short comment and the bug number.

Um, not sure i understand you correctly here: you're suggesting security team drops the affected package keywords and let arch teams readd stable to the new ones?

Hey, kindly leave me alone... - I'm *not* demanding anything from *arch teams*, the bugs are for *maintainers* of those packages. I've already told you couple of times, why are you making these misleading statements yet again? - Not my problem that maintainers didn't check keywords on removal (even on bugs where mips is CCed). Developers are supposed to use *brain* when punting vulnerable versions (like with any other commit). - Also not my problem that $arch is still affected by such bugs months or even years after respective GLSAs have been issued (which has caused the ebuilds to still stay in the tree and hence made me file the bugs). Before I've started filing these bugs, we had vulnerable crap back from ~2004 lingering in the tree. - Leaving vulnerable junk in the tree for an indefinite period of time sucks and is causing needless work for maintainers. We lack any policy on this, but if some arch can't act for over a year, they deserve to get the keywords dropped and get their deptree broken, sorry. Not maintainers' fault that noone has cared enough. -- Best regards, Jakub Moc mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] GPG signature: http://subkeys.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xCEBA3D9E Primary key fingerprint: D2D7 933C 9BA1 C95B 2C95 B30F 8717 D5FD CEBA 3D9E ... still no signature ;) signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

How about cc'ing arches, which are affected by this? You still get your point across and maybe arches move it up their priority list if they see a removal "b/c of centuries old vulnerabilities". I'm happy with you reporting vulnerable ebuilds and request action on them. However, i agree with mips that breaking their deptree is bad. I know they're working really hard (keep in mind the machines they got) on getting things done. I still don't see the point of removing stable keywords from those ebuilds, though. I'd like to keep the p.mask for this, maybe with mips and other known to lag behind arches unmasking the ebuilds in question.
