1 low-priority security issue in bullseye low

There is 1 open security issue in bullseye.

1 issue left for the package maintainer to handle:
  • CVE-2022-31033: (needs triaging) The Mechanize library is used for automating interaction with websites. Mechanize automatically stores and sends cookies, follows redirects, and can follow links and submit forms. In versions prior to 2.8.5 the Authorization header is leaked after a redirect to a different port on the same site. Users are advised to upgrade to Mechanize v2.8.5 or later. There are no known workarounds for this issue.

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