Marked for autoremoval on 21 June due to ndpi: #953181high
Version 3.8+dfsg1-2.1 of ntopng is marked for autoremoval from testing on Sun 21 Jun 2020. It depends (transitively) on ndpi, affected by #953181. You should try to prevent the removal by fixing these RC bugs.
CVE-2018-12520: An issue was discovered in ntopng 3.4 before 3.4.180617. The PRNG involved in the generation of session IDs is not seeded at program startup. This results in deterministic session IDs being allocated for active user sessions. An attacker with foreknowledge of the operating system and standard library in use by the host running the service and the username of the user whose session they're targeting can abuse the deterministic random number generation in order to hijack the user's session, thus escalating their access.
CVE-2015-8368: ntopng (aka ntop) before 2.2 allows remote authenticated users to change the login context and gain privileges via the user cookie and username parameter to admin/password_reset.lua.
CVE-2017-7416: ntopng before 3.0 allows XSS because GET and POST parameters are improperly validated.
CVE-2017-7459: ntopng before 3.0 allows HTTP Response Splitting.
CVE-2017-7458: The NetworkInterface::getHost function in NetworkInterface.cpp in ntopng before 3.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via an empty field that should have contained a hostname or IP address.
CVE-2017-5473: Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in ntopng through 2.4 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of arbitrary users, as demonstrated by admin/add_user.lua, admin/change_user_prefs.lua, admin/delete_user.lua, and admin/password_reset.lua.

Please fix them.
Standards version of the package is outdated.
wishlist
The package should be updated to follow the last version of Debian Policy
(Standards-Version 4.5.0 instead of
4.4.1).
testing migrations
This package is part of the ongoing testing transition known as auto-ndpi.
Please avoid uploads unrelated to this transition, they would
likely delay it and require supplementary work from the release
managers. On the other hand, if your package has problems
preventing it to migrate to testing, please fix them
as soon as possible.
You can probably find supplementary information in the
debian-release
archives or in the corresponding
release.debian.org
bug.
