A new upstream version is available: 9.7.1 high
A new upstream version 9.7.1 is available, you should consider packaging it.

The VCS repository is not up to date, push the missing commits. high
vcswatch reports that the current version of the package is not in its VCS.
Either you need to push your commits and/or your tags, or the information about the package's VCS are out of date. A common cause of the latter issue when using the Git VCS is not specifying the correct branch when the packaging is not in the default one (remote HEAD branch), which is usually "master" but can be modified in salsa.debian.org in the project's general settings with the "Default Branch" field). Alternatively the Vcs-Git field in debian/control can contain a "-b <branch-name>" suffix to indicate what branch is used for the Debian packaging.

debian/patches: 1 patch with invalid metadata, 14 patches to forward upstream high

Among the 24 debian patches available in version 9.6.2+ds-2 of the package, we noticed the following issues:

  • 1 patch with invalid metadata that ought to be fixed.
  • 14 patches where the metadata indicates that the patch has not yet been forwarded upstream. You should either forward the patch upstream or update the metadata to document its real status.

4 security issues in forky high

There are 4 open security issues in forky.

4 important issues:
  • CVE-2025-57106: Kitware VTK (Visualization Toolkit) up to 9.5.0 is vulnerable to Buffer Overflow in vtkGLTFDocumentLoader. The vulnerability occurs in the BufferDataExtractionWorker template function when processing GLTF accessor data.
  • CVE-2025-57107: Kitware VTK (Visualization Toolkit) through 9.5.0 contains a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in vtkGLTFDocumentLoader. When processing specially crafted GLTF files, the copy constructor of Accessor objects fails to properly validate buffer boundaries before performing memory read operations.
  • CVE-2025-57108: Kitware VTK (Visualization Toolkit) through 9.5.0 contains a heap use-after-free vulnerability in vtkGLTFDocumentLoader. The vulnerability manifests during mesh object copy operations where vector members are accessed after the underlying memory has been freed, specifically when handling GLTF files with corrupted or invalid mesh reference structures.
  • CVE-2025-57109: Kitware VTK (Visualization Toolkit) 9.5.0 is vulnerable to Heap Use-After-Free in vtkGLTFImporter::ImportActors. When processing GLTF files with invalid scene node references, the application accesses string members of mesh objects that have been previously freed during actor import operations.
