as discussed with Salvatore Bonaccorso of the Debian Security Team
(team cc'ed), I'm herewith requesting a CVE ID for the following

in multiple distributions; upstream developer cc'ed):

Is there anything you need me to do?

It would be nice if you could add the CVE-ID to the Changes file of
ack retroactively as soon as it's known so that it's part of the
Changes file in further ack releases.
