We have updated software using the source from AIX Toolbox for Open Source Software to address security vulnerabilities. However, two end of support software packages remain:


• Red Hat rpm-python 3.0
• Mark Adler zlib 1.2.13

Is there an IBM roadmap for updating these for  AIX, or does IBM provide backport protection if new security CVEs arise regarding those software?
