Hi Everyone,

Crypto++ 8.4 was released today. The 8.4 release was a minor, unplanned 
release. There were no CVEs cleared and one memory error cleared. A 
recompile of programs is required due to an unintentional ABI break in 
Crypto++ 8.3.

The Crypto++ 8.4 release removed the defective code used in Elliptic 
Curves. The defective code was added at Crypto++ 8.3. That means the timing 
leak is present again, and CVE-2019-14318 is active again.

The release notes and list of issues fixed can be found at 
http://www.cryptopp.com/release840.html. The 8.4.0 ZIP archive can be 
downloaded from http://www.cryptopp.com/cryptopp840.zip. A GPG signature
