Security Approval Request

• Which older supported branches are affected by this flaw?: All
• If not all supported branches, which bug introduced the flaw?: None
• Do you have backports for the affected branches?: Yes
• If not, how different, hard to create, and risky will they be?: Patch applies cleanly to all affected branches.
