Package        : org-mode     CVE ID         : CVE-2024-39331     Debian Bug     : 1074136

It was discovered that Org Mode for Emacs is prone to arbitrary shell     code evaluation when opening a specially crafted Org file.

This update includes updates pending for the upcoming point releases     including other security fixes.

For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), this problem has been fixed     in version 9.4.0+dfsg-1+deb11u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your org-mode packages.

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