http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2013/12/18/3 raises the
question of whether there is a CVE assignment in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1026891 already, in order
to avoid a duplicate assignment. Our guess is that security issues
tracked privately by Red Hat typically do have pre-assigned CVE IDs,
so MITRE will delay a CVE assignment indefinitely.

Although it would be great to know what CVE ID you have assigned,
replying with something like "yes, it has a CVE ID, but it's only
being shared with the embargo audience" would be quite useful as well.

There is a CVE assigned to this, but based on what Sebastian wrote, I can’t tell if it’s the same issue so I’m 
hesitant to say what the CVE is in case it does end up being different.

Sebastian, can you give me access to your bug?  Or did you intend to make it public?  I’m assuming that since you 
are asking about a CVE here, you maybe did not mean to keep it private?  Your other message said your bug contained 
upstream URLs (so maybe even pasting those here would be helpful).

Once I can look at it, I can let you know for sure whether or not it is the same issue (and should then use the same 
CVE).

I have moved the bug to our Security Incidents product, so it should be visible now.

I see it.  That should be CVE-2013-6418 as Murray had already indicated.
