thanks

I believe the correct severity level is critical, not grave as security
bugs are supposed to be rated according to:

        * affects a user that installs a package: critical
        * affects a user that has executed a binary, allowing
          compromising userdata, taking over account, etc.: grave
        * affects build-process, or generally annoying: important

In any case, a new package is on its way now, the package is currently
only in unstable.
