Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: bullseye
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu
X-Debbugs-Cc: glib2.0@packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:glib2.0
[ Reason ]
Fix a minor memory leak introduced by recent security updates, matching
a similar request for bookworm-pu.
[ Impact ]
In an unusual situation that I believe is very rare in practice, programs
using D-Bus via GLib will leak memory.
[ Tests ]
There is a relatively extensive test suite, which is how the leak was found
in the first place, and it still passes.
I no longer have Debian 11 on real hardware, but I tried the proposed
version briefly in a GNOME virtual machine and it still works.
[ Risks ]
Low risk. The change is small and obviously correct, already migrated
to testing, and was included in the backported security fix for Debian
10 LTS. It was discovered too late to be included with the more serious
regression fixes in Debian 12 and 11, and in any case would not have been
urgent enough to justify delaying fixes for the more serious regression.
[ Checklist ]
[x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
- this is vs. bullseye-security, I assume that's OK
[x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable
[ Changes ]
All changes are for this single bug fix.
[ Other info ]
I already uploaded the proposed version to bullseye-proposed-updates.
The security team did not consider this to be important enough to issue
another DSA update.

Thanks for reviewing this change. Please consider also accepting #1071159
into bookworm-p-u (same change, different base version) to preserve the
property that bookworm has no regressions when compared with bullseye,
which I assume is something we want to be able to treat as an invariant.

Yep, that's the plan. I just ran out of time on yesterday's run through the queues before I got to handling the bookworm upload. Regards, Adam
