    Multiple security vulnerabilities have been discovered in mbedtls, a     lightweight crypto and SSL/TLS library, which may allow attackers to obtain     sensitive information like the RSA private key or cause a denial of service     (application or server crash).

    For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version     2.16.9-0~deb10u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your mbedtls packages.

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