The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

If an appropriate party can prepare an accurate correction, it will be
promptly posted to c.o.l.a.  Security-related information has a
high-priority.  Make sure you include this information:

  Is Debian vulnerable, if so, which versions of lpr and how to
  determine if you have one of those versions.

  How to fix it, including md5sums of the new packages and where to
  get them.

Also be sure to send the information to Alexander O. Yuriev.  It might
be better if he could send a correction to linux-alert that I could
forward.
