    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,
