    Package : lynx
    CVE ID : CVE-2021-38165
    Debian Bug : 991971

    Thorsten Glaser and Axel Beckert reported that lynx, a non-graphical (text-mode) web browser, does not properly handle the userinfo
    subcomponent of a URI, which can lead to leaking of credential in
    cleartext in SNI data.

    For the stable distribution (buster), this problem has been fixed in
    version 2.8.9rel.1-3+deb10u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your lynx packages.

    For the detailed security status of lynx please refer to its security
    tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/lynx
