Package	Type	Release	Fixed Version	Urgency	Origin	Debian Bugs
apparmor	source	(unstable)	(not affected)

Notes

- apparmor <not-affected> (Vulnerable code only in Ubuntu-specific backport of patch)
Caused by a patch that was added to the Ubuntu packaging before
it was taken upstream. The one that was merged upstream (and part
of AppArmor 2.9.0) is not affected. The closest version to the
affected one that we ever had in Debian (2.8.96~2652) did not
include the faulty patch.
