@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧I would like to bring this package to the attention of the security minded people https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/433307 It is using very old vendored versions of fontforge and poppler, both over 5 years old, and at least poppler contains 10+ CVEs.11:35:13
@teutat3s:pub.solarteutat3shttps://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/43999611:44:42
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyonly been in the tree for 8 hours, let's revert11:45:13
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyif there's going to be a new release without vulns it can wait for that11:45:26
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧I was thinking the same11:45:43
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilypackage guidelines are pretty clear that we need a good reason to add a new package that has significant vulnerabilities from the start11:46:11
@emilazy:matrix.orgemilyI'd do it but not at a computer rn11:46:17
@leona:leona.isleonai created a revert PR https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/442351. I won't merge that myself, happy for reviews.11:52:43
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧I already saw that when clicking revert that the commit was already created. Approved, too.11:54:56
@emilazy:matrix.orgemily(personally I don't think we need tons of ceremony for reverting for things that would have been a blocking review if caught hours before merge rather than after. part of the Hintjens optimistic merging doc people like is unilateral reverts if a change is problematic. so I'll hit the merge button)11:56:38
