Package: reportbug
Version: 6.4.4+deb7u1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

as the number of packaged web papplications increases, reportbug should
imho have a category that is designated to be appropriate for cases
where the problem does not allow compromising a local user or gaining
root, but where the application would make the host prone to carrying
out attacks on third party hosts, on behalf of the attacker. As an
example, installing malware to cause drive-by downloads may be
mentioned - usually, the host itself might not be otherwise affected by
the additional files it would serve.

Please consider assigning an appropriate category to this kind of
problem and offer the user to set the security tag on the affected
report.


Kind regards,
--Toni++
