Commit Message

From: Deepak Rathore <deeratho@cisco.com>

- CVE-2026-4873 affects curl before 8.20.0 when a connection negotiated with
  clear-text IMAP, POP3, or SMTP can later be reused for a TLS-required
  transfer.
- In wrynose, these protocols are optional PACKAGECONFIG entries and are not
  enabled by default in curl_8.19.0.bb, so record this CVE as configuration-not-applicable
  for the default recipe configuration.

Hello,

All that series should be tagged v2 with a changelog where appropriate:
https://docs.yoctoproject.org/dev/contributor-guide/submit-changes.html#taking-patch-review-into-account

Can you resend it with the v2 tag? You can use -v2 if you use git-send-email.

Adding these tags/changelog helps me a lot when tracking patch status.

Thanks!
