Well, too late... We already provided update for this prior these CVEs were assigned - right after report from SUSE and fix by upstream maintainer (P.Brady). https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-8201/coreutils-8.23-10.fc22 , https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-8242/coreutils-8.22-22.fc21 and https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-8257/coreutils-8.21-22.fc20 . I don't think it makes sense to change them to Security type of update as some of these already reached stable status (and others are close to it).

What to do with these bugzillas now?

Cool, if it's fixed in Fedora already - we can just CLOSE/CURRENTRELEASE this one.
