We also discussed two older security advisories. Those are not urgent, because IIUC both seem to be already fixed at least in the latest release, but we weren’t able to assert this during the meeting and contacted the reporters for details.

Are you allowed to disclose if one of these is the one commonly cited as part of NAR unpacking vulnerability -- post mortem? If so, it’s good to see that these issues are now being taken more seriously and hopefully this can improve relations between Nix and Lix.
