-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hello, Historically, FreeBSD Security Advisories have been used to report security issues found in the base system, and high-risk issues related to third-party applications available in the Ports Collection. The FreeBSD Security Officer Team will now be issuing Security Notices in addition to Security Advisories. While Security Advisories will continue to be the team's focus, the Security Notices will provide a channel for communicating issues that have been previously publicized. In particular, problems reported with applications in the Ports Collection that are not FreeBSD-specific are likely to be reported in a Security Notice. FreeBSD makes no claim about the security of these third-party applications. We expect that this will allow the FreeBSD Security Officer Team to cover more issues --- especially in third-party software --- in a more timely fashion, while reserving full Security Advisories for problems in FreeBSD itself or that only affect FreeBSD. Cheers, The FreeBSD Security Officer Team. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iQCVAwUBPK23iVUuHi5z0oilAQEP6gP/dSC4dTT6I9ggl2DaxKI89+44av6e3vrZ VHDT1TNTHPGTrAwYj6vtpMBIu6Pd08GuYTxyT355Tg1fZAwvvHCPWQYW9BaevFTB cTXDrMZSOIF9TEBuxZVB3DE7ef3DnWyBqb6hB3+jYz8Kqwyl2vZY0+KZw0AibjEH PwLWGjvnopk= =wss2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- This is the moderated mailing list freebsd-announce.
