Dear Debian Team,
via the security-tracker Debian provides information about the vulnerable and fixed package versions.
However, I wanted to ask if the named vulnerable version is the version where the vulnerability was first identified or if it is the lowest number of a vulnerable package.
Example:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2022-0330
buster
4.19.208-1
vulnerable
fixed in 4.19.232-1
Is the vulnerability from >= 4.19.208-1 and < 4.19.232-1
Or is every version lower then the fixed version vulnerable (< 4.19.232-1)
Thanks a lot.
Kind regards.
Kerstin Zuzej
