Dear ftp-masters,

If I may add on top of what Andreas wrote, at the moment testing and
unstable (and jessie-backports) are completely uncovered in terms of
security fixes. The 352 branch that we ship there and can't upgrade from
until the NEW queue is cleared has been deprecated [1].
If a CVE is published and a fix released, it will happen in the 361
release, which we have ready in SVN but cannot proceed to upload.

Kind regards,
Luca Boccassi
