Hello Everyone,

You may have seen the recent announcement regarding new OpenSSL
vulnerabilities.  <URL: http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20030930.txt >

Just thought I'd drop a line to head off the usual questions. :-)

  Don't panic.  The vulnerability is denial-of-service.

  OpenSSL 0.9.7c will be imported into -CURRENT and -STABLE over the
  next couple of days, and included in 4.9-RELEASE.

  Fixes for the security branches will be backported and incorporated
  over the next week.

  Don't expect to see a security advisory until most or all of the
  commits have been made.

Cheers,
--
