Hi Timo, hi all,

I have worked on a security upload of sssd to get sssd back into testing.

As a result, I have uploaded sssd 2.13.1-1 to DELAYED/7 queue just now
targetting unstable, addressing the following CVE issues:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-6245
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-12610
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-14474
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-14476

I plan to push my changes to a Git repo under my personal account on
salsa (as I lack permissions for the sssd-team group):
https://salsa.debian.org/sunweaver/sssd (including the release tag
debian/2.13.1-1).

However, salsa is currently having issues with forking the original
sssd-team/sssd repo into my personal name space. So, I will try to
push the changes later.

Also, as a member of the Debian Edu team (consuming sssd already now,
but even more for the Debian Edu 14 release), I'd like to become
co-maintainer of sssd in Debian. Thanks!

Cheers,
Mike

Thanks for working on sssd!

Salsa invite for 'sunweaver' to become Maintainer of the sssd-team on
Salsa.  Unless someone objects, I suggest that you push to the real sssd
git project instead of your fork.  There seems to be nobody else
actively working on it anyway.

Further: The sssd-team is small, just sssd, ding-libs and the *-wrapper
projects:

https://salsa.debian.org/sssd-team

My focus in the team has been on *-wrapper, and I don't recall anyone
else lately contributing to any of these projects.

What do you think about moving all of these projects into the /debian/
Salsa namespace?  We could also change the Maintainer field to some
group with more participators, such as the pkg-security or Debian
Commons teams.  Both changes may bring more new contributors, as more
people will be able to commit improvements and/or feel entitled to work
on sssd-related projects.
