2 low-priority security issues in bookworm low

There are 2 open security issues in bookworm.

2 issues left for the package maintainer to handle:

CVE-2024-10041: (needs triaging) A vulnerability was found in PAM. The secret information is stored in memory, where the attacker can trigger the victim program to execute by sending characters to its standard input (stdin). As this occurs, the attacker can train the branch predictor to execute an ROP chain speculatively. This flaw could result in leaked passwords, such as those found in /etc/shadow while performing authentications.
CVE-2024-22365: (needs triaging) linux-pam (aka Linux PAM) before 1.6.0 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (blocked login process) via mkfifo because the openat call (for protect_dir) lacks O_DIRECTORY.

You can find information about how to handle these issues in the security team's documentation.
