2 security issues in sid high

There are 2 open security issues in sid.

2 important issues:
  • CVE-2026-103432: apcupsd through 3.14.14 has an sscanf stack-based buffer overflow in getupsvar() in src/cgi/upsfetch.c (used by upsstats.cgi, multimon.cgi, and upsfstats.cgi), a related issue to CVE-2026-15544.
  • CVE-2026-103436: apcupsd through 3.14.14 discloses uninitialized stack memory in getupsvar() in src/cgi/upsfetch.c (used by upsstats.cgi, multimon.cgi, and upsfstats.cgi. On the single-field path, when the matched STATUS line has fewer than three whitespace-separated tokens, sscanf("%*s %*s %s", answer) performs no assignment but the function returns success, and thus the caller prints the uninitialized destination buffer into the HTTP response.
