+
+<toc-add-entry name="security">Security Advisories</toc-add-entry>
+
+
+<p>Debian's Security Team releases current advisories on a daily basis.
+Some recently released advisories concern these packages:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li><a href="https://www.debian.org/security/2023/dsa-5435-2">trafficserver</a>
+Several vulnerabilities were discovered in Apache Traffic Server, a
+reverse and forward proxy server, which could result in information
+disclosure or denial of service.</li>
+
+<li><a href="https://www.debian.org/security/2023/dsa-5438">asterisk</a>
+A flaw was found in Asterisk, an Open Source Private Branch Exchange. A
+buffer overflow vulnerability affects users that use PJSIP DNS resolver.
+This vulnerability is related to CVE-2022-24793. The difference is that
+this issue is in parsing the query record `parse_query()`, while the issue
+in CVE-2022-24793 is in `parse_rr()`. A workaround is to disable DNS
+resolution in PJSIP config (by setting `nameserver_count` to zero) or use
+an external resolver implementation instead.</li>
+
+<li><a href="https://www.debian.org/security/2023/dsa-5442">flask</a>
+It was discovered that in some conditions the Flask web framework may
+disclose a session cookie.</li>
+
+<li><a href="https://www.debian.org/security/2023/dsa-5456">chromium</a>
+Multiple security issues were discovered in Chromium, which could result
+in the execution of arbitrary code, denial of service or information
+disclosure.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Other</h2>
+
+<p><b>Popular packages</b></p>
+
+<ul>
+<li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/stable/gpgv">gpgv - GNU privacy guard
+signature verification tool</a>. 99,053 installations. gpgv is actually a
+stripped-down version of gpg which is only able to check signatures. It is
+somewhat smaller than the fully-blown gpg and uses a different (and simpler)
+way to check that the public keys used to make the signature are valid. There
+are no configuration files and only a few options are implemented.</li>
+
+<li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/stable/dmsetup">dmsetup - Linux Kernel
+Device Mapper userspace library</a>. 77,769 installations. The Linux Kernel
+Device Mapper is the LVM (Linux Logical Volume Management) Team's implementation
+of a minimalistic kernel-space driver that handles volume management, while
+keeping knowledge of the underlying device layout in user-space. This makes it
+useful for not only LVM, but software raid, and other drivers that create
+<q>virtual</q> block devices.</li>
+
+<li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/stable/sensible-utils">sensible-utils - Utilities
+for sensible alternative selection</a>. 96,001 daily users. This package
+provides a number of small utilities which are used by programs to sensibly
+select and spawn an appropriate browser, editor, or pager. The specific
+utilities included are: sensible-browser sensible-editor sensible-pager.</li>
+
+<li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/stable/popularity-contest">popularity-contest -
+The popularity-contest package</a>. 90,758 daily users. The popularity-contest
+package sets up a cron job that will periodically anonymously submit to the
+Debian developers statistics about the most used Debian packages on the system.
+This information helps Debian make decisions such as which packages should go on
+the first CD. It also lets Debian improve future versions of the distribution so
+that the most popular packages are the ones which are installed automatically
+for new users.</li>
+</ul>
+
+
+<p><b>New and noteworthy packages in unstable</b></p>
+
+<ul>
+<li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/unstable/main/libsimgrid3.34">Toolkit
+for scalable simulation of distributed applications</a> Open Lighting
+Architecture - RDM Responder Tests] SimGrid is a toolkit that provides core
+functionalities for the simulation of distributed applications in heterogeneous
+distributed environments. SimGrid can be used as a Grid simulator, a P2P
+simulator, a Cloud simulator, a MPI simulator, or a mix of all of them. The
+typical use-cases of SimGrid include heuristic evaluation, application
+prototyping, and real application development and tuning. This package
+contains the dynamic libraries and runtime.</li>
+
+<li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/unstable/main/ldraw-mklist">LDraw mklist program</a>
+3D CAD programs and rendering programs using the LDraw parts library of LEGO
+parts rely on a file called parts.lst containing a list of all available parts.
+The program ldraw-mklist is used to generate this list from a directory of
+LDraw parts.</li>
+
+<li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/unstable/main/ola-rdm-tests">Open
+Lighting Architecture - RDM Responder Tests</a> The DMX512 standard for Digital
+MultipleX is used for digital communication networks commonly used to control
+stage lighting and effects. The Remote Device Management protocol is an
+extension to DMX512, allowing bi-directional communication between RDM-compliant
+devices without disturbing other devices on the same connection. The Open
+Lighting Architecture (OLA) provides a plugin framework for distributing DMX512
+control signals. The ola-rdm-tests package provides an automated way to check
+protocol compliance in RDM devices.</li>
+
+<li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/unstable/main/parsec-service">parsec-service</a>
+Parsec is an abstraction layer that can be used to interact with hardware-backed
+security facilities such as the Hardware Security Module (HSM), the Trusted
+Platform Module (TPM), as well as firmware-backed and isolated software
+services. The core component of Parsec is the security service, provided by this
+package. The service is a background process that runs on the host platform and
+provides connectivity with the secure facilities of that host, exposing a
+platform-neutral API that can be consumed into different programming languages
+using a client library. For a client library implemented in Rust see the package
+librust-parsec-interface-dev.</li>
+
+<li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/unstable/main/ripcalc">Simple network calculator and lookup tool</a>
+Process and lookup network addresses from the command line or CSV with ripalc.
+Output has a variety of customisable formats.</li>
+
+<li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/unstable/main/xmrig">High performance,
+open source CPU/GPU miner and RandomX benchmark</a>
+XMRig is a high performance, open source, cross platform RandomX, KawPow,
+CryptoNight, and GhostRider unified CPU/GPU miner and RandomX benchmark.</li>
+
+<li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/unstable/main/librust-gping-dev">Ping,
+but with a graph - Rust source code</a> This package contains the source for the
+Rust gping crate, packaged by debcargo for use with cargo and dh-cargo.</li>
