Hello community,

1)
reviewing the GeoServer security policy I found the approach of a "Coordinated 
vulnerability disclosure" very reasonable. Thanks for taking security 
seriously. Regarding:

        4. A fix is included for the "stable" and "maintenance" downloads [...]

Does that mean, that GeoServer 2.23.2 from 2023-07-21 already contains the 
security patches relevant for this release ?
Or will there a 2.23.3 ? A backport would be useful in this situation because 
of the GeoTools API-package introduction, making it harder to upgrade.

2)
I regularly check for new GeoServer releases and especially the "security 
considerations" in the release announcements. I am also keeping book of my 
activities. Result: I checked the GeoServer announcement for 2.23.2 from 
2023-07-21 on 2023-08-21 (after my summer vacation :-) ) and I found NO 
security considerations for this release. Checking the same release *NOW* there 
*ARE* security considerations for this release.

Current announcement for 2.23.2:
https://geoserver.org/announcements/2023/07/21/geoserver-2-23-2-released.html

Original announcement for 2.23.2::

I suppose this happened by mistake or is this expected behavior?

Best regards and have a nice weekend,
Andreas Watermeyer
