    Package        : xapian-core
    Version        : 1.4.11-1+deb10u1
    Debian Bug     : 1032398

    Two important bugs were discovered in xapian-core, a search engine
    library, that led to potential database corruption on disk full, and
    incorrectly reporting corruption for a database with replication
    changesets.

    For Debian 10 buster, this problem has been fixed in version
    1.4.11-1+deb10u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your xapian-core packages.

    For the detailed security status of xapian-core please refer to
    its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/xapian-core

    Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply
    these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.
