Hi,

Debian currently ships firejail 0.9.64.4 in stable and 0.9.58.2 in oldstable.
stable-backports will get a backported 0.9.70 that contains the fix, but not every stable user has the backports repository enabled.
I tried to apply the patch to 0.9.64.4, but there are several conflicts.

Is someone planning on backporting the fixes to other versions as well?

I can backport the patch to 0.9.66, 0.9.64.4 and 0.9.58

It will take a bit of time, I'll report back on Monday.

Alright, I'm providing early patch versions, but they are still undertested.

I understand that time is in short supply here, but it will take me probably one more day to get a more appropriate level of confidence.

Thanks @smitsohu!
I've prepared an update for 0.9.64.4 in stable, which should soon get accepted as a security update. I will also do the 0.9.58.2 update in oldstable.
