While that does seem like a buried lede, I felt it wasn't my place to raise alarms about a 2 year old bug that may have been fixed.
The bug description certainly makes it sound very serious. If its not fixed in upstream, it at least seems fixed at the distribution level since Ubuntu 18.04 and newer don't suffer from the issue. Or if they do, it can't be reached via the same code in ul.
