Dear Maintainer,

Security update for CVE-2025-26466, version 1:9.2p1-2+deb12u5, depends
on libssl3 >= 3.0.15, but that package is not available in Debian
Security. Therefore, the unattended upgrader, which is configured to
only install security updates, cannot install it:

# unattended-upgrade -v
Checking if system is running on battery is skipped. Please install powermgmt-base package to check power status and skip installing updates when the system is running on battery.

# apt-cache policy libssl3
libssl3:
  Installed: 3.0.14-1~deb12u2
  Candidate: 3.0.15-1~deb12u1
  Version table:

I worked around it by just doing 'apt install openssh-server', but that
doesn't scale.
