There are 3 maintainers. CC'ed rails at p.d.o.
However, since you have already worked on preparing the fix for
Jessie, it's much easier on your part to do it for Stretch and Buster.
But that's volunteer work :)

If you don't want to work, don't :)

The latest security update from 5.2.4.2 to 5.2.4.3, which contained
fixes for CVE-2020-816{2,4,5,6,7}.
JavaScript bundle generation for Activestorage didn't work w/o that
patch. We had to switch to node-babel7 for that.


Best,
