See reply to my previous email. Also i have attached the list here. I
did some random analysis and came up with the following conclusion:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1493497
This one is ftbs on ppc

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1488785
This one was actually fixed, but the bug did not close

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1487715
This is iamgemagick so one of many cves which are open against it.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1484840
Not sure.

I definitely want to address the core problem here, but i dont want to
go through tens and even sometimes hundreds of bugs to figure out why
they have not been fixed. Shouldnt the package maintainer be doing it in
the first place?
