Package: gitolite3
Version: 3.6.6-1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

i have used gitolite3 for many years, this is the first time i have ever
had a major bug, and it involved a username with an underscore in it.
ssh to the server reported "hello user" not "hello user_xxxx", and
COMPLETELY the wrong repository was granted write access.

this is an extremely serious security issue.
