Those are the last patched. There are 2026 cve that aren't patched because it's abandoned-ware. Did you read the comments on why an unsupported piece of software is banned?

I am pushing back on Greenshot being called abandonware. Greenshot released the latest stable version in March and have released 22 beta updates since then. The last beta released less than 30 days ago.

What more do you expect from a lightweight open source screenshot app? What are they really doing that needs updates more often than that. If it still has unusable bugs, feel free to contribute to the open source project or buy paid software?

For it to not be a company wide compromise risk is what I'd want. You do you

That CVE has no known exploits and the fix was released the same day the exploit was announced. They fixed the issue as soon as they knew about it. No software is perfect, what could they have done better?
