New OpenSSL Security Advisory Announced

Posted by samzenpus on from the protect-ya-neck dept.

New submitter eyeareque writes: It's time to patch OpenSSL again. The OpenSSL project has patched several moderate- and low-severity security vulnerabilities and also has added protection against the Logjam attack in new releases of the software. Personally I wish that OpenSSL released these in a predictable cadence. Patch Tuesday maybe?

    What's the use of a predictable cadence for security updates? Security vulnerabilities are not found on a schedule. Personally I want my updates ASAP. You can update when you want (but sooner is better for everyone).
