Comment 1 Petr Menšík 2022-03-11 11:34:13 UTC 
This flaw were found independently also by Richard Johnson of Trellix ATR (richard.johnson), reported few days after me to upstream. Should we wait for CVE assignment or fix it just without it? It were not yet made public as far as I know.

I have just checked https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2022-0934 and it is still reserved only. Could that be updated also?
