It's not clear what, precisely, they are about, and so it is impossible to tell if they actually have been fixed. I appreciate that you clean out old stuff, but doing it this way makes it seem you suddenly have developed a policy for secrecy around security issues.tjay@ (our docker guy) verified they were fixed as you can see from his comments in the bugs. This is an example of why we need to clean these old things out. Nobody really cares about them, and in all likelihood they got fixed by upstream.
Well, it's been an interesting experience to be on the other side of the information deficit for once. Usually, it's us who complain about certain upstreams who say that they have fixed some vulnerabilities in a new release (along with tons of other fixes), list a few CVEs, but without any details what was actually fixed. In any case, my immediate need for this information is gone. Debian jessie will not release with the docker.io package. (Previously, it was at version 1.3.3, which is why I was a bit concerned.)
