That is often the case, but we have always permitted other reliable
references as well.

In this case no CVEs were issued, and I rarely bother with VuXML
entries for the -devel port, because users have come to expect
frequent updates and bug disclosures, and a full list of the secure
versions would be complicated and subject to frequent changes.
However, I can add an entry marking all prior versions as vulnerable
in this case if users think that it would be helpful.
