Comment 10 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2023-09-02 22:54:23 UTC
Proposed as a Blocker for 39-beta by Fedora user ngompa using the blocker tracking app because:

 This violates the criteria "a critical path package cannot have a known security vulnerability of high or greater with no reasonable workaround".

Comment 11 FrantiĊĦek Zatloukal 2023-09-04 18:03:50 UTC
Discussed during the 2023-09-04 blocker review meeting: [1]

The decision to classify this bug as a RejectedBlocker (Beta) AcceptedBlocker (Final) AcceptedFreezeException (Beta) was made:

"This is rejected as a Beta blocker as it doesn't violate any Beta criterion. It does violate the security criterion for Final so it's accepted as a Final blocker, and a Beta FE as it would be good to fix it for Beta too."
