    Package : python-apt
    Debian Bug : 977000

    The update for python-apt released as DSA 4809-1 introduced a regression
    when passing a file descriptor to apt_inst.ArFile or apt_inst.DebFile
    causing a segmentation fault. Updated python-apt packages are now
    available to correct this issue.

    For the stable distribution (buster), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.8.4.3.

    We recommend that you upgrade your python-apt packages.

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