Missing break in DSI OpenSession
A missing break statement in DSI OpenSession processing in Netatalk 1.5.0 through 4.4.2 causes a DSIOPT_ATTNQUANT switch case to fall through into DSIOPT_SERVQUANT, resulting in unintended session option handling that may allow a remote attacker to cause a minor service disruption via crafted DSI session options.

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.
No nightly-computed relations.
Chain candidates
An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
