Thank you for releasing a fix so quickly. The bug is unlikely to be
exploitable, and the security tag will be removed. I realize only now
that many emails (about 20% in our case), that are listed as package
maintainers, are public mailing lists. That's unfortunate, but
hopefully most reported bugs will not be security critical.

Best,
Alex
