Thanks for info. Indeed it makes sense. Maybe it's just me, who didn't see it as
obvious when looking into CVE-2023-1829 description. But OK "We recommend
upgrading past commit 8c710f75256bb3cf05ac7b1672c82b92c43f3d28." + your
description makes it clear that some distros just preferred blacklist
configuration instead of backporting the removal commit.

Kind regards,
Petr
