I would like to know if there is a plan to upgrade net-snmp to 5.9.5.

I see that we backporting all the vulnerabilities and important fixes to
5.9.4 in LTS branch (scarthgap).

As per NVD, it recommends upgrading  to 5.9.5/5.10.pre2 to address
CVE-2025-68615.

https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-68615

Since vulnerable tools report, net-snmp 5.9.4 is vulnerable to
CVE-2025-68615, despite the fix is backported to 5.9.4, raises a false
alarm among users.

I think it's better we upgrade LTS branch NetSNMP to version 5.9.5.

FYI, net-snmp is in meta-openembedded/meta-networking, the correct
mailing list to use is openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org.
