Fabrice, All,

On 2020-02-29 10:46 +0100, Fabrice Fontaine spake thusly:
> Unspecified vulnerability in Boost before 6.x-1.03, a module for Drupal,
> allows remote attackers to create new webroot directories via unknown
> attack vectors.

Yes, good to know, but the interesting bit is why we are not affected,
which your commit log fails to specify.

Also, the comment should say so as well. Maybe just something like:

    # Module for Drupal, not installed in Buildroot
    BOOST_IGNORE_CVES +=...

Care to respin with explanations, please?

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
