Suggested advisory:
========================

The updated package fixes a security vulnerability:

sysstat through 12.7.2 allows a multiplication integer overflow in check_overflow in common.c. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2022-39377. (CVE-2023-33204)

Testing this for mga8, x64.
Groundwork in bug 26067.
It appears that munin-node uses sysstat so I installed munin and munin-node.  Documentation is mainly online.  No handholding for a noddy so after a couple of hours fiddling about with configuration files gave up on that.

Good enough.  The cli utilities worked fine before the update so no regressions.
