CVE-2011-4091 and CVE-2011-4093 can be fixed with an updated net6.
CVE-2011-4092 is a design issue in obby that won't be fixed upstream
unless somebody else steps up to implement/fix it.  (libinfinity fixes
this issue and is not affected by the other two issues.)

I think fixing -4093 (and possibly -4091) in a stable update makes sense
but I don't see a DSA for any of them.

Kind regards,
