Another very recent example is
https://lists.debian.org/debian-security-announce/2025/msg00200.html

It is about:
https://discuss.tryton.org/t/security-release-for-issue-14290/8895
https://foss.heptapod.net/tryton/tryton/-/issues/14290

While it would be nice that a identifier exists for this issue (has
not yet happend), this was not blocking doing an update.

Salvatore
