Package: cpio Version: 2.5-1.1 Severity: grave Tags: security I'm filing this bug report so we can track the progress of getting cpio fixed in unstable. Since the DSA says "soon", you've probably already been contacted by the security team, so if you have an upload already built just close this bug.
