This should be in the subject line so it is more visible.
Oh well, it was pushed without the subject line change. But I noticed
that DV had added a signed tag to our previous CVE (2013-2218, just
before 1.1.0), and that is also easily visible if you use 'tig', so I've
just finished creating lots of other signed tags for CVE fixes over the
last three years:
CVE-2011-1146 CVE-2012-3411 CVE-2013-0170 CVE-2013-2230
CVE-2011-1486 CVE-2012-3445 CVE-2013-1962
CVE-2011-2178 CVE-2012-4423 CVE-2013-2218
Since signed tags can be added after the fact, they are a nice way to
consistently mark bug fixes, regardless of whether the commit itself was
aware of a CVE number (for example, some of those tags are on commits
that were made public long before a CVE was assigned, because no one
realized the exploit until after the patch was pushed).
