For reference: https://marc.info/?l=sox-devel&m=167577672104072&w=2 The patches were sent to oss-security *because* upstream failed to react: I am working on fixing known vulnerabilities in sox and since upstream seems mostly dead (no commits in more than a year, no replies to bug reports) Given this, waiting until upstream decides to unhibernate makes little sense to me.
