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-2025-47711: (needs triaging) There's a flaw in the nbdkit server when handling responses from its plugins regarding the status of data blocks. If a client makes a specific request for a very large data range, and a plugin responds with an even larger single block, the nbdkit server can encounter a critical internal error, leading to a denial-of-service.
  • CVE-2025-47712: (needs triaging) A flaw exists in the nbdkit "blocksize" filter that can be triggered by a specific type of client request. When a client requests block status information for a very large data range, exceeding a certain limit, it causes an internal error in the nbdkit, leading to a denial of service.

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