Utkarsh Gupta: FOSS Activities in August 2026

Here s my monthly but brief update about the activities I ve done in the FOSS world.

Debian
I barely did anything this month as I was mostly on vacation - summer break. Went to Iceland for 2 weeks and then watched the Dutch GP the following weekend - it was fab!

Ubuntu
I joined Canonical to work on Ubuntu full-time back in February 2021.
  • Vacations mostly.
  • Attended and drove a few sessions in the mid-cycle sprints.

Debian (E)LTS
This month I have worked 0 hours on Debian Long Term Support (LTS) and on its sister Extended LTS project as I was on vacation the whole month. I ll follow up with the two packages in September.
Until next time.
:wq for today.

Freexian Collaborators: Monthly report about Debian Long Term Support, July 2026 (by Santiago Ruano Rinc n)

The Debian LTS Team, funded by Freexian s Debian LTS offering, is pleased to report its activities for July.

Activity summary During the month of July, 23 contributors have been paid to work on Debian LTS (links to individual contributor reports are located below). The team released 52 DLAs fixing 2159 CVEs. In July, the Debian Stable Release Managers published the last point release of Debian 12 ( bookworm ), after which the Debian LTS team took full responsibility of Debian 12. This completes the handover from the Security Team, that took place in June. This also marks the second month in a row where the Debian LTS has been focusing on two simultaneous Debian releases. Other than Debian 12, the team is maintaining Debian 11 ( bullseye ), which will reach the end of its Long Term Support on 31 August 2026. After that date, Freexian will continue the security support under the Extended LTS offer. The team published several notable updates:
  • jq (DLA 4662-1 and DLA 4661-1) prepared by Andreas Henriksson in collaboration with Jochen Sprickerhof, addressing multiple vulnerabilities.
  • Several updates for the different linux supported versions prepared by Ben Hutchings, in collaboration with Emilio Pozuelo Monfort. Other than the regular security advisories: DLA 4664-1, DLA 4665-1, DLA 4671-1, DLA 4688-1, and DLA 4700-1, Ben started preparing packages of 6.12 via bookworm-backports.
  • nginx (DLA 4667-1), updated for bookworm by Carlos Henrique Lima Melara, as a follow up of the bullseye update (DLA 4660-1), that was prepared in June.
  • grub2/bullseye (DLA 4685-1), prepared by Emilio. Other than addressing several security issues, this DLA was needed for being able to update the shim boot loader.
  • samba (DLA 4692-1), uploaded by Markus Koschany, to fix several security flaws in bullseye, including issues that could yield to remote code execution.
  • imagemagick (DLA 4680-1 and DLA 4696-1), prepared by Bastien Roucari s, addressing several issues that could lead to denial of service, information disclosure or potentially arbitrary code execution in some scenarios.
  • poppler (DLA 4709-1), by Guilhem Moulin, fixing several vulnerabilities.
  • nss (DLA-4694-1), by Jochen, fixing flaws that may result in or denial of service or potentially the execution of arbitrary code.
Contributions from outside the LTS Team: The LTS Team has also contributed with updates to the latest Debian releases:
  • Bastien also proposed two updates for imagemagick. The first one released as DSA 6383-1, and the second as a trixie point update proposal (#1142554).
  • python-httplib2 by Emmanuel Arias, and released by the security team as DSA 6441-1 in August.
  • hplip (DSA 6402-1), prepared by Thorsten Alteholz, to address privilege escalation and arbitrary code execution related flaws.
  • libnfs trixie update (#1142351), by Thorsten
  • patool update for trixie #1141607, by Abhijith PA
Other contributions: Besides the work on security updates, different documentation and tooling changes were needed, especially in the context of the Debian 12 handover. This work was mainly done by Sylvain Beucler.

Freexian Collaborators: Monthly report about Debian Long Term Support, June 2026 (by Thorsten Alteholz)

The Debian LTS Team, funded by [Freexian s Debian LTS offering] (https://www.freexian.com/lts/debian/), is pleased to report its activities for June.

Activity summary During the month of June, 20 contributors have been paid to work on Debian LTS (links to individual contributor reports are located below). The team released 48 DLAs fixing 231 CVEs. Debian 12 ( bookworm ) has been handed over to the LTS Team on June 11th. During this handover Sylvain helped to update relevant tools and documentation. If you benefit from Debian, especially during the full 5-year lifecycle, please consider subscribing as a sponsor of Debian LTS: https://www.freexian.com/lts/debian/. Moreover, Debian 11 ( bullseye ) will reach the end of the Debian LTS period on August 31st. After that, Freexian will continue the security support under the Extended LTS offer. The team published several notable updates:
  • haveged update (DLA-4616-1), prepared by Thorsten, to address local privilege escalation.
  • tomcat9 update (DLA-4619-1), prepared by Markus, to address, among others, an authentication bypass.
  • apache2 update (DLA-4620-1), prepared by Bastien, to address a HTTP/2 bomb.
  • apache2 update (DLA-4629-1), prepared by Bastien, to address, among others, remote code execution and privilege escalation.
  • libinput update (DLA-4626-1), prepared by Santiago, to address local privilege escalation and arbitrary code execution.
  • asterisk update (DLA-4631-1), prepared by Thorsten, to address, among others, wrong processing of invalid or untrusted certificates.
  • nginx update (DLA-4634-1), prepared by Charles, to address a remote code execution and denial of service.
  • firefox-esr update (DLA-4635-1), prepared by Emilio, to address dozens of CVEs, among other things, related to arbitrary code execution and privilege escalation.
  • thunderbird update (DLA-4636-1), prepared by Emilio, to address dozens of CVEs, among other things, related to arbitrary code execution.
  • chromium update (DLA-4654-1), prepared by Emilio, to address dozens of CVEs, among other things, related to arbitrary code execution.
Contributions from outside the LTS Team: We are greatly thankful for the contributions from people outside the LTS Team:
  • Salvatore Bonaccorso prepared a libhttp-daemon-perl update, that was released by Santiago as DLA-4639-1.
  • Salvatore also directly uploaded libgd-perl DLA-4638-1 and libconfig-inifiles-perl DLA-4637-1.
  • Peter Palfrader prepared a tor update, that was released by Santiago as DLA-4656-1.
  • Pieter Lenaerts prepared a beets update, that was released by Emmanuel as DLA-4641-1.
  • Noah Meyerhans prepared a cloud-init update DLA-4645-1.
The LTS Team has also contributed with updates to the latest Debian releases:
  • Besides publishing DLA-4642-1 for package u-boot Andreas also prepared an NMU for an upload to sid and prepared a stable-proposed-update (SPU) bug for trixie, which was already acknowledged by a stable release manager (SRM).
  • Andreas also prepared an upload of package atril for trixie, which was handled by the security team as DSA-6349-1.
  • Besides publishing DLA-4620-1 for package apache Bastien also prepared an upload for trixie, which was handled by the security team as DSA-6323-1.
  • Tobi uploaded package mesa to trixie and bookworm.
  • Thorsten fixed some (not security related but RC) issues in package dahdi-linux. This was in preparation to fix lots of security issues in asterisk. Unfortunately the maintainer ignored the corresponding debdiff and prefered to upload a new upstream version. Anyway, the concerns of the security team about security support of asterisk could be overcome and asterisk can migrate to tesing and again be part of a Debian release.

Utkarsh Gupta: FOSS Activities in June 2026

Here s my monthly but brief update about the activities I ve done in the FOSS world.

Debian
Whilst I didn t get a chance to do much, here are still a few things that I worked on:
  • Leading the DebConf Bursary team along with PEB.
    • This took most of my Debian time this month but we ve been able to wrap that work now.
    • Got back to all the tickets on Zammad, too.
  • Assisted a few folks in getting their patches submitted via Salsa.
  • Mentoring for newcomers.
  • Moderation of -project mailing list.

Ubuntu
I joined Canonical to work on Ubuntu full-time back in February 2021. Whilst I can t give a full, detailed list of things I did, here s a quick TL;DR of what I did:
  • Continued to push for infrastructure improvements:
    • Charming.
    • Artifact signing.
    • Reorganizing cdimage.
    • And so on.
  • Successfully released 26.10 Snapshot 2!
    • We landed a breaking change in the directory structure.
    • whihc had consequences on the rsync, being run by the sysadmins.
      • The 30 GB rsync failed because of the load on the system and it resulted in things blowing up. Yay. Stress-testing the shit out of our infra. :)
      • We got it back under control in the next few days but oh wow, what a journey to get there.
  • Assisted a bunch of folks with my Archive Admin and Release team hats to:
    • Helped in archive opening tasks.
    • Promoting/demoting binaries to/from main.
    • Taking care of package removals and so on.
    • Reviewed the NEW queue.
  • Reviewed quite a lot of MPs, specs, and other people s work.

This month I have worked 15 hours on Debian Long Term Support (LTS) and on its sister Extended LTS project and did the following things:

Released Security Updates

Work in Progress

Other Activities
  • [LTS] Emilio pointed out that the gst-plugins-ugly1.0 binaries were still not fully released, so I ran dcut migrate to fully release them. The DLA had gone out earlier.
  • [ELTS] Did some more work on ruby-rack - a lot of new CVEs have opened up and, whilst I made some progress, Santiago let me know that ruby-rack is no longer supported and so it ll be removed from the ela-needed list.
  • [E/LTS] Set up the security-tracker and a few other things on the new machine, and debugged the git repository size madness. Sent a summary here.
  • [E/LTS] Monitored discussions on mailing lists, IRC, and all the documentation updates.

Utkarsh Gupta: FOSS Activites in February 2026

Here s my monthly but brief update about the activities I ve done in the FOSS world.

Debian
Whilst I didn t get a chance to do much, here are still a few things that I worked on:
  • Uploaded node-lodash/4.17.21+dfsg+~cs8.31.198.20210220-10 to fix CVE-2025-13465 in unstable. Pinged Xavier and Praveen to see how they feel about the backport for the stable releases.
  • Assited a few folks in getting their patches submitted via Salsa.
    • Reviewing pyenv MR for Ujjwal.
    • Reviewing and assisting Anshul with his Golang stuff.
  • Mentoring for newcomers.
  • Started to be a bit involved with DC 26 bits.
  • Moderation of -project mailing list.

Ubuntu
I joined Canonical to work on Ubuntu full-time back in February 2021. Whilst I can t give a full, detailed list of things I did, here s a quick TL;DR of what I did:
  • Successfully released Resolute Snapshot 4!
    • This one was also done without the ISO tracker and cdimage access.
    • We also worked very hard to build and promote all the image in due time.
    • This was one done with the Test Observer. The first one.
  • Worked further on the whole artifact signing story for cdimage.
  • Assisted a bunch of folks with my Archive Admin and Release team hats to:
    • Review and grant FFes.
    • Coordinating weekly syncs.
    • Promoting binaries to main.
    • Taking care of package removals and so on.
  • Was pretty occupied with the new release processs architecture.

Debian (E)LTS
This month I have worked 42 hours on Debian Long Term Support (LTS) and on its sister Extended LTS project and did the following things:

Released Security Updates

Work in Progress
  • knot-resolver: Affected by CVE-2023-26249, CVE-2023-46317, and CVE-2022-40188, leading to Denial of Service.
  • ruby-rack: There were multiple vulnerabilities reported in Rack, leading to DoS (memory exhaustion) and proxy bypass.
    • [ELTS]: I ve partially reviewed patches by Bastien but whilst doing so, new ones came up for all the releases.
    • [sid]: Uploaded ruby-rack/3.2.5-1 to unstable to fix the new CVEs, CVE-2026-25500 and CVE-2026-22860.
    • [stable]: Prepared the upload for stable releases, as requested by the Security Team. Will upload them in March.
    • [bullseye]: Backport for CVE-2026-22860 hasn t been as trivial as it appears to be. There are test failures, which aren t really ignore-able:
      The tests requests /cgi/../test, which File.expand_path resolves to <root>/test - firmly inside @root. With the old code, it hit the return unless path_info.include? ".." guard and fell through to 403. But it would also have returned early via start_with?(@root) being true
    • anyway, this needs more investigation - I ll continue to do so in March as P1.
  • node-lodash: Affected by CVE-2025-13465, lrototype pollution in baseUnset function.
    • [stable]: The patch for trixie and bookworm are ready and have been awaiting the maintainer review.
    • [LTS]: The bullseye upload will follow once the stable uploads are in and ACK d by the SRMs.
  • vlc: Affected by CVE-2025-51602, an out-of-bounds read and denial of service via a crafted 0x01 response from an MMS server.
    • [LTS]: 3.0.23 backport is ready but not tested. I ll get this over the line in March.
    • [ELTS]: 3.0.23 backport is ready but not very clean. Would like to complete LTS and get back to this.

Other Activities
  • [LTS] Coordinated the libvirt sitaution with Ben Hutchings. The upload has already been prepped, will upload in March.
  • [ELTS] Continued to help Bastien and Markus with the tomcat9 regression for buster.
  • [ELTS] Partially reviewed ruby-rack CVEs to help Bastien. This took more time than expected with some more develpments hapening at the end of the month - new CVEs that aren t as easy to backport as I expected them to be. Will continue with these in March.
  • [E/LTS] Front Desk duties: Performed a large batch of CVE triage, marking numerous packages for bullseye, buster, and stretch as either postponed, end-of-life, not-affected, or added them to the Xla-needed.txt files.
    • Also replied to certain mails and IRC texts around FD related tasks.
  • [E/LTS] Monitored discussions on mailing lists, IRC, and all the documentation updates.
  • [E/LTS] Attended the monthly LTS meeting on Jitsi. Summary here.
Until next time.

Freexian Collaborators: Monthly report about Debian Long Term Support, January 2026 (by Santiago Ruano Rinc n)

The Debian LTS Team, funded by Freexian s Debian LTS offering, is pleased to report its activities for January.

Activity summary During the month of January, 20 contributors have been paid to work on Debian LTS (links to individual contributor reports are located below). The team released 33 DLAs fixing 216 CVEs. The team continued preparing security updates in its usual rhythm. Beyond the updates targeting Debian 11 ( bullseye ), which is the current release under LTS, the team also proposed updates for more recent releases (Debian 12 ( bookworm ) and Debian 13 ( trixie )), including Debian unstable. We highlight several notable security updates here below. Notable security updates:
  • python3.9, prepared by Andrej Shadura (DLA-4455-1), fixing multiple vulnerabilities in the Python interpreter.
  • php, prepared by Guilhem Moulin (DLA-4447-1), fixing two vulnerabilities that could yield to request forgery or denial of service.
  • apache2, prepared by Bastien Roucari s DLA-4452-1, fixing four CVEs.
  • linux-6.1, prepared by Ben Hutchings (DLA-4436-1), as a regular update of the linux 6.1 backport to Debian 11.
  • python-django, prepared by Chris Lamb (DLA-4458-1), resolving multiple vulnerabilities.
  • firefox-esr prepared by Emilio Pozuelo Monfort (DLA-4439-1)
  • gnupg2, prepared by Roberto S nchez (DLA-4437-1), fixing multiple issues, including CVE-2025-68973 that could potentially be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
  • apache-log4j2, prepared by Markus Koschany (DLA-4444-1)
  • ceph, prepared by Utkarsh Gupta (DLA-4460-1)
  • inetutils, prepared by Andreas Henriksson (DLA-4453-1), fixing an authentication bypass in telnetd.
Moreover, Sylvain Beucler studied the security support status of p7zip, a fork of 7zip that has become unmaintained upstream. To avoid letting the users continue using an unsupported package, Sylvain has investigated a path forward in collaboration with the security team and the 7zip maintainer, looking to replace p7zip with 7zip. It is to note however that 7zip developers don t reveal the information about the patches that fix CVEs, making it difficult to backport single patches to fix vulnerabilities in Debian released versions. Contributions from outside the LTS Team: Thunderbird, prepared by maintainer Christoph Goehre. The DLA (DLA-4442-1) was published by Emilio. The LTS Team has also contributed with updates to the latest Debian releases:
  • Bastien uploaded gpsd to unstable, and proposed updates for trixie #1126121 and bookworm #1126168 to fix two CVEs.
  • Bastien also prepared the imagemagick updates for trixie and bookworm, released as DSA-6111-1, along with the bullseye update DLA-4448-1.
  • Chris proposed a trixie point update for python-django (#112646), and the work for bookworm was completed in February (#1079454). The longstanding bookworm update required tracking down a regression in the django-storages packages.
  • Markus prepared tomcat10 updates for trixie and bookworm (DSA-6120-1), and tomcat11 for trixie (DSA-6121-1)
  • Thorsten Alteholz prepared bookworm point updates for zvbi (#1126167) to fix five CVEs; taglib (#1126273) to fix one CVE; and libuev (#1126370) to fix one CVE.
  • Utkarsh prepared an unstable update of node-lodash to fix one CVE.
Other than the work related to updates, Sylvain made several improvements to the documentation and tooling used by the team.

Utkarsh Gupta: FOSS Activites in January 2026

Here s my monthly but brief update about the activities I ve done in the FOSS world.

Debian
Whilst I didn t get a chance to do much, here are still a few things that I worked on:
  • A few discussions with the new DFSG team, et al.
  • Assited a few folks in getting their patches submitted via Salsa.
  • Reviewing pyenv MR for Ujjwal.
  • Mentoring for newcomers.
  • Moderation of -project mailing list.

Ubuntu
I joined Canonical to work on Ubuntu full-time back in February 2021. Whilst I can t give a full, detailed list of things I did, here s a quick TL;DR of what I did:
  • Successfully released Resolute Snapshot 3!
    • This one was also done without the ISO tracker and cdimage access.
    • We also worked very hard to build and promote all the image in due time.
  • Worked further on the whole artifact signing story for cdimage.
  • Assisted a bunch of folks with my Archive Admin and Release team hats to:
    • Helped in EOL ing Plucky.
    • Starting to help with the upcoming 24.04.4 release.
  • With that, the mid-cycle sprints are around the corner, so quite busy preparing for that.

Debian (E)LTS
This month I have worked 59 hours on Debian Long Term Support (LTS) and on its sister Extended LTS project and did the following things:

Released Security Updates

Work in Progress
  • knot-resolver: Affected by CVE-2023-26249, CVE-2023-46317, and CVE-2022-40188, leading to Denial of Service.
  • ruby-rack: There were multiple vulnerabilities reported in Rack, leading to DoS (memory exhaustion) and proxy bypass.
    • [ELTS]: After completing the work for LTS myself, Bastien picked it up for ELTS and reached out about an upstream regression and we ve been doing some exchanges. Bastien has done most of the work backporting the patches but needs a review and help backporting CVE-2025-61771. Haven t made much progress since last month and will carry it over.
  • node-lodash: Affected by CVE-2025-13465, lrototype pollution in baseUnset function.
    • [stable]: The patch for trixie and bookworm are ready but haven t been uploaded yet as I d like for the unstable upload to settle a bit before I proceed with stable uploads.
    • [LTS]: The bullseye upload will follow once the stable uploads are in and ACK d by the SRMs.
  • xrdp: Affected by CVE-2025-68670, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow.

Other Activities
  • [ELTS] Helped Bastien Roucaries debug a tomcat9 regression for buster.
    • I spent quite a lot of time trying to help Bastien (with Markus and Santiago involved via mail thread) by reproducing the regression that the user(s) reported.
    • I also helped suggest a path forward by vendoring everything, which I was then requested to also help perform.
    • Whilst doing that, I noticed circular dependency hellhole and suggested another path forward by backporting bnd and its dependencies as separate NEW packages.
    • Bastien liked the idea and is going to work on that but preferred to revert the update to remedy the immediate regressions reported. I further helped him in reviewing his update. This conversation happened on #debian-elts IRC channel.
  • [LTS] Assisted Ben Hutchings with his question about the next possible steps with a plausible libvirt regression caused by the Linux kernel update. This was a thread on debian-lts@ mailing list.
  • [LTS] Attended the monthly LTS meeting on IRC. Summary here.
  • [E/LTS] Monitored discussions on mailing lists, IRC, and all the documentation updates.
Until next time.
:wq for today.

    • Added the following packages to d,e la-needed.txt:
      • liblivemedia, sogo.
    • During my triage, I had to make the bin/elts-eol script robust to determine the lts_admin repository - did a back and forth with Emilio about this on the list.
    • I sent a gentle reminder to the LTS team about the issues fixed in bullseye but not in bookworm via mailing list: https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts/2025/12/msg00013.html.
  • I claimed php-horde-css-parser to work on CVE-2020-13756 for buster and did almost all the work only to realize that the patch already existed in buster and the changelog confirmed that it was intentionally fixed.
    • After speaking with Andreas Henriksson, we figured that the CVE ID was missed when the ELA was generated and so I fixed that via 87afaaf19ce56123bc9508d9c6cd5360b18114ef and 5621431e84818b4e650ffdce4c456daec0ee4d51 in the ELTS security tracker to reflect the situation.
  • Participated in a thread which I started last month around using Salsa CI for E/LTS packages and if we plan to sunset it in favor of using Debusine. The plan for now is to keep it around as it s still beneficial and Debusine is still in its early phase.
  • Did a lot of back and forth with Helmut about debusine uploads on #debian-elts.
    • While debugging a failure in dcut uploads, I ran into an SSH compatibility issue on deb-master.freexian.com that could be fixed on the server-side. I shared all my findings to Freexian s sysadmin team.
    • A minimal fix on the server side would be one of: 
      PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms -ssh-dss
      or explicitly restricting to modern algorithms, e.g.: 
      PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms
ssh-ed25519,ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,rsa-sha2-512,rsa-sha2-256
  • Jelly on #debian-lts reported that all my DLA mails had broken GMail s DKIM signature. So I set up sending replies from @debian.org and that seems to have fixed that! \o/
  • [LTS] Attended a rather short monthly LTS meeting on Jitsi. Summary here.
  • [E/LTS] Monitored discussions on mailing lists, IRC, and all the documentation updates.
Until next time.

Freexian Collaborators: Monthly report about Debian Long Term Support, November 2025 (by Santiago Ruano Rinc n)

The Debian LTS Team, funded by [Freexian s Debian LTS offering] (https://www.freexian.com/lts/debian/), is pleased to report its activities for November.

Activity summary During the month of November, 18 contributors have been paid to work on Debian LTS (links to individual contributor reports are located below). The team released 33 DLAs fixing 219 CVEs. The LTS Team kept going with the usual cadence of preparing security updates for Debian 11 bullseye , but also for Debian 12 bookworm , Debian 13 trixie and even Debian unstable. As in previous months, we are pleased to say that there have been multiple contributions of LTS uploads by Debian Fellows outside the regular LTS Team. Notable security updates:
  • Guilhem Moulin prepared DLA 4365-1 for unbound, a caching DNS resolver, fixing a cache poisoning vulnerability that could lead to domain hijacking.
  • Another update related to DNS software was made by Andreas Henriksson. Andreas completed the work on bind9, released as DLA 4364-1 to fix cache poisoning and Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerabilities.
  • Chris Lamb released DLA 4374-1 to fix a potential arbitrary code execution vulnerability in pdfminer, a tool for extracting information from PDF documents.
  • Ben Hutchings published a regular security update for the linux 6.1 bullseye backport, as DLA 4379-1.
  • A couple of other important recurrent updates were prepared by Emilio Pozuelo, who handled firefox-esr and thunderbird (in collaboration with Christoph Goehre), published as DLAs DLA 4370-1 and DLA 4372-1, respectively.
Contributions from fellows outside the LTS Team:
  • Thomas Goirand uploaded a bullseye update for keystone and swift
  • Jeremy B cha prepared the bullseye update for gst-plugins-base1.0
  • As mentioned above, Christoph Goehre prepared the bullseye update for thunderbird.
  • Mathias Behrle provided feedback about the tryton-server and tryton-sao vulnerabilities that were disclosed last month, and helped to review the bullseye patches for tryton-server.
Other than the regular LTS updates for bullseye, the LTS Team has also contributed updates to the latest Debian releases:
  • Bastien Roucari s prepared a bookworm update for squid, the web proxy cache server.
  • Carlos Henrique Lima Melara filed a bookworm point update request for gdk-pixbuf to fix CVE-2025-7345, a heap buffer overflow vulnerability that could lead to arbitrary code execution.
  • Daniel Leidert prepared bookworm and trixie updates for r-cran-gh to fix CVE-2025-54956, an issue that may expose user credentials in HTTP responses.
  • Along with the bullseye updates for unbound mentioned above, Guilhem helped to prepare the trixie update for unbound.
  • In collaboration with Lukas M rdian, Tobias Frost prepared trixie and bookworm updates for log4cxx, the C++ port of the logging framework for JAVA.
  • Jochen Sprickerhof prepared a bookworm update for syslog-ng.
  • Utkarsh completed the bookworm update for wordpress, addressing multiple security issues in the popular blogging tool.
Beyond security updates, there has been a significant effort in revamping our documentation, aiming to make the processes more clear and consistent for all the members of the team. This work was mainly carried out by Sylvain, Jochen and Roberto. We would like to express our gratitude to the sponsors for making the Debian LTS project possible. Also, special thanks to the fellows outside the LTS team for their valuable help.

Utkarsh Gupta: FOSS Activites in November 2025

Here s my monthly but brief update about the activities I ve done in the FOSS world.

Debian
Whilst I didn t get a chance to do much, here are still a few things that I worked on:
  • Did a few sessions with the new DFSG team to help kickstart things, et al.
  • Assited a few folks in getting their patches submitted via Salsa.
  • Mentoring for newcomers.
  • Moderation of -project mailing list.

Ubuntu
I joined Canonical to work on Ubuntu full-time back in February 2021. Whilst I can t give a full, detailed list of things I did, here s a quick TL;DR of what I did:
  • Successfully released Resolute Snapshot 1!
    • This one was particularly interesting as it was done without the ISO tracker and cdimage access.
    • There are some wrinkles that need ironing out for the next snapshot.
  • Resolute Raccoon is now fully and formally open.
  • Assisted a bunch of folks with my Archive Admin and Release team hats to:
    • review NEW packages for Ubuntu Studio.
    • remove old binaries that are stalling transition and/or migration.
    • LTS requalification of Ubuntu flavours.
    • bootstrapping dotnet-10 packages.
    • removal of openjdk-19 from Jammy, which sparked some interesting discussions.

Debian (E)LTS
This month I have worked 22 hours on Debian Long Term Support (LTS) and on its sister Extended LTS project and did the following things:
  • wordpress: There were multiple vulnerabilities reported in Wordpress, leading to Sent Data & Cross-site Scripting.
    • [bookworm]: Roberto rightly pointed out that the upload to bookworm hadn t gone through last month, so I re-uploaded wordpress/6.1.9+dfsg1-0+deb12u1 to bookworm-security.
    • This is now released as DSA 6075-1.
  • ruby-rack: There were multiple vulnerabilities reported in Rack, leading to DoS (memory exhaustion) and proxy bypass.
    • [ELTS]: Last month I had backported fixes for CVE-2025-46727 & CVE-2025-32441 to buster and stretch but the other backports were being a bit tricky due to really old versions.
    • I spent a bit more time but there s a lot to demystify. Gonna take a bit of break from this one and come back to this after doing other updates. Might even consider sending a RFH to the list.
  • libwebsockets: Multiple issues were reported in LWS causing denial of service and stack-based buffer overflow.
  • mako: It was found that Mako, a Python template library, was vulnerable to a denial of service attack via crafted regular expressions.
    • [LTS]: For bullseye, these were fixed via 1.1.3+ds1-2+deb11u1. And released as DLA 4393-1.
    • Backporting tests was an interesting exercise as I had to make them compatible with the bullseye version. :)
  • ceph: Affected by CVE-2024-47866, using the argument x-amz-copy-source to put an object and specifying an empty string as its content leads to the RGW daemon crashing, resulting in a DoS attack.
    • [LTS]: Whilst the patch is straightforward, backports are a bit tricky. I ve prepared the update but would like to reach out to zigo, the maintainer, to make sure nothing regresses.
    • [ELTS]: Same as LTS, I d like to get a quick review and upload to LTS first before I start staging uploads for ELTS.
  • [LTS] Attended the monthly LTS meeting on IRC. Summary here.
    • It was also followed by a 50-minute post-meeting technical discussion/question session.
  • [E/LTS] Monitored discussions on mailing lists, IRC, and all the documentation updates. Thanks, Sylvain, for a great documentation summary.
Until next time.
:wq for today.

    • cups, prepared by Thorsten Alteholz, fixes authentication bypass and denial of service vulnerabilities
    • jetty9, prepared by Adrian Bunk, fixes the MadeYouReset vulnerability (a recent, well-known denial of service vulnerability)
    • python-django, prepared by Chris Lamb, fixes a SQL injection vulnerability

    • wireless-regdb prepared by Ben Hutchings, updates information reflecting changes to radio regulations in many countries
There was one package update contributed by a Debian Developer outside of the LTS Team: an update of node-tar-fs, prepared by Xavier Guimard (a member of the Node packaging team). Finally, LTS Team members also contributed updates of the following packages:
  • libxslt (to stable and oldstable), prepared by Guilhem Moulin, to address a regression introduced in a previous security update
  • libphp-adodb (to stable and oldstable), prepared by Abhijith PA
  • cups (to stable and oldstable), prepared by Thorsten Alteholz
  • u-boot (to oldstable), prepared by Daniel Leidert and Jochen Sprickerhof
  • libcommongs-lang3-java (to stable and oldstable), prepared by Daniel Leidert
  • python-internetarchive (to oldstable), prepared by Daniel Leidert
One other notable contribution by a member of the LTS Team is that Sylvain Beucler proposed a fix upstream for CVE-2025-2760 in gimp2. Upstream no longer supports gimp2, but it is still present in Debian LTS, and so proposing this fix upstream is of benefit to other distros which may still be supporting the older gimp2 packages.

Utkarsh Gupta: FOSS Activites in September 2025

Here s my monthly but brief update about the activities I ve done in the F/L/OSS world.

Debian
Whilst I didn t get a chance to do much, here s still a few things that I worked on:

Ubuntu
I joined Canonical to work on Ubuntu full-time back in February 2021. Whilst I can t give a full, detailed list of things I did, here s a quick TL;DR of what I did:
  • Successfully and timely released 25.10 (Questing Quokka) Beta! \o/
  • Continued to hold weekly release syncs, et al.
  • Granted FFe and triaged a bunch of other bugs from both, Release team and Archive Admin POV. :)
  • 360s were fab - I was a peak performer again. Yay!
  • Preparing for the 25.10 Release sprints in London and then the Summit.
  • Roadmap planning for the Release team.

Debian (E)LTS
This month I have worked 16.50 hours on Debian Long Term Support (LTS) and 05.50 hours on its sister Extended LTS project and did the following things:
  • [E/LTS] Frontdesk duty from 22nd September to 28th September.
    • Triaged lemonldap-ng, ghostscript, dovecot, node-ip, webkit2gtk, wpewebkit, libscram-java, keras, openbabel, gegl, tiff, zookeeper, squid, ogre-1.12, mapserver, ruby-rack.
    • Auto-EOL d a few packages.
    • Also circled back on previously opened ticket for supported packages for ELTS.
    • Partially reviewed and added comment on Emilio s MP.
    • Re-visited an old thread (in order to fully close it) about issues being fixed in buster & bookworm but not in bullseye. And brought it up in the LTS meeting, too.
  • [LTS] Partook in some internal discussions about introducing support for handling severity of CVEs, et al.
    • Santiago had asked for an input from people doing FD so spent some time reflecting on his proposal and getting back with thoughts and suggestions.
  • [LTS] Helped Lee with testing gitk and git-gui aspects of his git update.
  • [LTS] Attended the monthly LTS meeting on IRC. Summary here.
    • It was also followed by a 40-minute discussion of technical questions/reviews/discussions - which in my opinion was pretty helpful. :)
  • [LTS] Prepared the LTS update for wordpress, bumping the package from 5.7.11 to 5.7.13.
    • Prepared an update for stable, Craig approved. Was waiting on the Security team s +1 to upload.
    • Now we ve waited enough that we have new CVEs. Oh well.
  • [ELTS] Finally setup debusine for ELTS uploads.
    • Since I use Ubuntu, this required installing debusine* from bookworm-backport but that required Python 3.11.
    • So I had to upgrade from Jammy (22.04) to Noble (24.04) - which was anyway pending.. :)
    • And then followed the docs to configure it. \o/
  • [E/LTS] Started working on new ruby-rack CVE.
Until next time.
:wq for today.

Evolution of the situation In August, we released 27 DLAs. The month of August marked the release of Debian 13 (codename trixie ). This is worth noting because it brought with it the return of the customary fast development pace of Debian unstable, which included several contributions from LTS Team members. More on that below. Of the many security updates which were published (and a few non-security updates as well), some notable ones are highlighted here.
  • Notable security updates:
    • gnutls28 prepared by Adrian Bunk, fixes several potential denial of service vulnerabilities
    • apache2, prepared by Bastien Roucari s, fixes several vulnerabilities including a potential denial of service and SSL/TLS-related access control
    • mbedtls (original update, regression update) prepared by Andrej Shadura, fixes several potential denial of service and information disclosure vulnerabilities
    • openjdk-17, prepared by Emilio Pozuelo Monfort, fixes several vulnerabilities which could result in denial of service, information disclosure or weakened TLS connections
  • Notable non-security updates:
    • distro-info-data, prepared by Stefano Rivera, adds information concerning future Debian and Ubuntu releases
    • ca-certificates-java, prepared by Bastien Roucari s, fixes some bugs which could disrupt future updates
The LTS Team continues to welcome the collaboration of maintainers from across the Debian community. The contributions of maintainers from outside the LTS Team include: postgresql-13 (Christoph Berg), sope (Jordi Mallach), thunderbird (Carsten Schoenert), and iperf3 (Roberto Lumbreras).

Debian Outreach Team: Spaarsh Gsoc Report

layout: post title: GSoC 2025 Report: Enhancing Debian packages with ROCm GPU acceleration date: 2025-09-01 categories: gsoc debian ROCm debian-packaging author: Spaarsh Thakkar

GitLab Salsa: @Spaarsh

GitHub: Spaarsh

Introduction I am Spaarsh Thakkar, a final-year Computer Science Engineering undergrad from India. My interests lie in research and systems. My recent work has been in and around Graphics Processing Units and I also hold a keen interest in Computer Networks. At the time of writing, I have been an open-source contributor for almost a year.

Proposal Description (as shown on GSoC Project Profile1) Due to Debian s open-source nature, no Debian package in main can have a proprietary GPU package listed as a dependency. While AI and HPC workloads increasingly rely on GPU acceleration, many Debian packages still focus solely on CUDA, which is proprietary. With the advent of ROCm, an open-source GPU computing platform, we can now integrate full-fledged AMD GPU support into Debian packages. This will improve the experience of developers working in AI/ML and HPC while positioning Debian as a strong OS choice for GPU-driven workloads. The proposal aims to aid in solving the aforementioned program by packaging several ROCm packages for debian and add ROCm support to some existing debian packages. The deliverables are as follows:
  1. New Debian packages with GPU support
  2. Enhanced GPU support within existing Debian packages
  3. More autopackagetests running on the Debian ROCm CI

Key Objectives Enable ROCm in:
  1. dbcsr
  2. gloo
  3. cp2k
Publish the following packages to debian apt archive:
  1. hipblas-common
  2. hipBLASlt

Work Report

1. Publishing hipblas-common to apt This objective was successfully completed, resulting in hipblas-common being published in the apt repository2. The process involved the following steps:
  1. Filing a Intent-To-Package (ITP)3
  2. Pulling the upstream source code repository from GitHub
  3. Adding the debian/ packaging files
  4. Testing the package locally
  5. Creating the corresponding project under rocm-team4
  6. Applying the necessary changes
  7. Building the package
  8. Testing it using sbuild
  9. Signing the package files
  10. Uploading the package to the mentors.debian.net archive(now in official archive)5
  11. Addressing review feedback and making changes
  12. Requesting sponsorship6
  13. Securing sponsorship, which led to the package being accepted into the experimental branch of apt
Since the beginning of GSoC, the package has also been promoted to the unstable branch2.

2. DBCSR ROCm and Multi-Arch Support During my GSoC project, I worked on extending the DBCSR (Distributed Block Compressed Sparse Row)7 package to improve its ROCm/HIP support, and handling multi-architecture GPU kernels in a way that is both practical for upstream maintainers and debian package developers. The code changes can be found at my dbcsr fork here8.

ROCm/HIP Enablement
  • Enabled ROCm backend support to DBCSR, allowing GPU acceleration beyond CUDA by enabling HIP-based builds.
  • Investigated and resolved build issues specific to HIP kernels within DBCSR.

Multi-Architecture GPU Kernel Handling (The following content was presented in greater detail at DebConf 25 as well. The presentation video can be found here9 and the presentation slide can be found here10).
  • DBCSR contains GPU kernels that are heavily optimized for specific architectures. By default, these are built for a single target architecture, which poses challenges for packaging where binaries need to support multiple possible GPU targets.
  • Explored different strategies for solving the multi-arch GPU kernel distribution problem, including:
    • Option 1: Fat binaries (embedding multiple GPU architectures into a single binary, with runtime dispatch). This is ideal for end-users but requires deeper changes upstream and is not straightforward with HIP/ROCm.
    • Option 2: Arch-specific libraries (e.g., libdbcsr.gfxXXX.a), where the alternatives system or explicit user selection would determine which one is used. This solves the problem but pushes complexity downstream into packaging and user configuration.
    • Option 3: Prefixed functions inside a single file, where kernels are compiled separately per architecture, functions are renamed with an arch prefix, and runtime logic in DBCSR decides which kernel to invoke. This shifts complexity upstream but could give a clean downstream experience.
  • I critically analyzed these options in the context of Debian packaging and upstream maintainability. Arch-specific .a files introduce exponential dependency complexity. The prefixed-function approach seemed like a plausible way forward, though it requires upstream buy-in.
  • After consulting with my mentor, these concerns were raised in the dbcsr repository as a discussion here11

Summary My work involved:
  • Enabling HIP/ROCm support in DBCSR.
  • Prototyping strategies for handling GPU multi-arch builds.
  • Evaluating the trade-offs between upstream maintainability and downstream packaging complexity.

3. gloo, hipification and source code issues One of the other packages that were targeted was gloo12. It is a collective communications library and has the implementations of different Machine Learning communication algorithms. The code changes can be found at my gloo fork here13 (some changes have not be committed at the time of writing).

HIP/ROCm Enablement
  1. Fixing old ROCm CMake functions The upstream Gloo codebase still used old ROCm CMake functions that began with the hip_ prefix (for example, hip_add_executable). These functions have since been deprecated/removed. I updated the build system to use the modern ROCm CMake equivalents so that the package can build properly in a current ROCm environment.
  2. Debian packaging changes I modified debian/control to add a new package, libgloo-rocm, in addition to the existing packages. This allows proper separation and handling of ROCm-enabled builds in Debian.
  3. First successful library build After these changes, I was able to successfully build the library. However, I ran into issues when trying to produce the shared library: there were undefined symbol errors at link time.

Source Code Issue On investigating the undefined symbol errors, I identified that these came from a lack of explicit template instantiation for some Gloo classes. Since C++ templates only get compiled when explicitly used or instantiated, this resulted in missing symbols in the shared library. To solve this, I explored the source code and noticed that the HIP backend code was not natively written it was generated from the CUDA backend using a custom hipification script maintained by the repo.
  • I experimented with modifying the HIPification process itself, trying out hipify-perl14 instead of the repository s custom Python script.
  • I also tried tweaking the source code in places where template instantiations were missing, so that the ROCm build would correctly export the needed symbols.

Summary The issue is still unresolved. The core problem lies in how the source code is structured: the HIP backend is almost entirely auto-generated from CUDA code, and the process does not handle template instantiations correctly. Because of this, the Debian package for Gloo with ROCm support is not yet ready for release, and further source-level fixes are required to make the ROCm build reliable.

4. cp2k CP2K15 is a quantum chemistry and solid state physics software package that can perform atomistic simulations of solid state, liquid, molecular, periodic, material, crystal, and biological systems.

HIP/ROCm Enablement cp2k depends on dbcsr and hence, HIP/ROCm enablement in this package required the dbcsr16 package to get through. Even though dbcsr isn t ready yet, it was worthwhile to plan how it shall be built with HIP/ROCm once we have dbcsr in place. Upon doing this, it was realized that the architecture-wise libraries provided by the dbcsr package will result in a complicated building process for cp2k. No changes have been made to this package yet and more concrete steps shall be taken once the dbcsr package work is completed.

Summary The multi-arch build process for cp2k maybe complicated by the one static-library-per-architecture method used in the dependent package, dbcsr.

Auxiliary Work & Activities While working on the aformentioned GSoC Goals, there were a few other things that were also done.
  1. libamdhip64-dev bug file17 While trying to enable HIP/ROCm in dbcsr, CMakeDetermineHIPCompiler.cmake was unable to find HIP runtime CMake package. After going through some similar issues faced by other developers earlier, it was decided to file a bug report under the libamdhip64-dev package. After discussions with and trying the changes suggested by Cory (my mentor) under the bug, the issue was resolved. Turns out, the wrong compiler was being used by me! The gcc compiler was supposed to be used and I was using hipcc. The bug was closed since it was not due an issue with the package. Cory suggested that I add this info under the ROCm wiki page. It is yet to be done and hopefully I get it done soon.
  2. DebConf25 Talk After facing the multi-arch build dilemma with dbcsr (and also getting to know about the issues faced by other fellow package developers), I came to realise that this was more than a packaging, build or programming issue. GPU-packaging was facing a policy issue. Hence, I decided to cover this problem in greater detail at my DebConf25 Virtual Presentation under the Outreach Session. Shoutout to Cory for his support and Lucas Kanashiro for encouraging me to present my work!
  3. Bi-Weekly AMD ROCm Meetings Shortly after the Coding period started, Cory began the initiative of Bi-Weekly AMD ROCm Meetings18. Being a part of the meetings (participated in all but one!), seeing the work the other folks are doing and being able to discuss my own problems was a delight.
  4. (Upcoming) IndiaFOSS 2025 Talk After understanding the nuances and beauty of the debian packaging ecosystem in these months, I decided to spread the work about debian packaging and packaging software in general. My talk19 for the same got accepted in the upcoming IndiaFOSS 202520 conference! I hope this beings more people towards the packaging ecosystem and to the debian developer ecosystem.

Conclusion My GSoC time was fantastic! I plan to complete the work that I have started during my GSoC and beyond. Working with Cory21 and Utkarsh22 (a fellow GSoC 25 contributor under Cory) has been a very positive experience. HIP/ROCm GPU-packaging is in a nascent stage. It is an exciting time to be in this space right now. The problems are new and never encountered before (CPU packaging isn t architecture specific!). The problems were shall face in the coming time, and our solutions to them will set a precendent for the future.
