+ Handling security fixes in source package wireshark
+
+Wireshark is a network protocol analyzer and it's ability to perform deep
+packet inspection in live traffic may encourage users to use Wireshark/Tshark
+as a part of an intrusion detection or traffic monitoring system.
+In that case, please note that Wireshark/Tshark may contain remotely
+triggerable bugs causing crashes or allowing code injection.
+
+Bugs allowing code injection will be fixed in regular Debian Security
+Advisories, but fixes for pure crash bugs may be delayed.
