    Multiple security vulnerabilities were found in Netatalk, an     implementation of the Apple Filing Protocol (AFP), which could result in     denial of service, information disclosure or the execution of arbitrary     code.

    For the stable distribution (trixie), these problems have been fixed in     version 4.2.3~ds-1+deb13u2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your netatalk packages.

    For the detailed security status of netatalk please refer to     its security tracker page at:
