BLFS Security Advisories for 11.3

BLFS Security Advisories for BLFS 12.0 and the current development books.

BLFS-12.0 was released on 2023-09-01

This page is in alphabetical order of packages, and if a package has multiple advisories the newer come first.

The links at the end of each item point to more details which have links to the released books.

In general, the severity is taken from upstream, if supplied, or from NVD (https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/) if an analysis is available there, but individual severity ratings at NVD can change over time. If no other information is available, 'High' will normally be assumed.
