Like each month, here comes a report about the work of paid contributors to Debian LTS.

Evolution of the situation
The number of sponsored hours did not change.
The security tracker currently lists 31 packages with a known CVE and the dla-needed.txt file 26. Thanks to a few extra hours dispatched this month (accumulated backlog of a contributor), the number of open issues came back to a more usual value.
