------
Therefore, all the bugs in this bulletin affect
Qubes 3.2, and users should patch immediately.
Compromise Recovery
====================
Starting with Qubes 3.2, we offer Paranoid Backup Restore Mode, which
was designed specifically to aid in the recovery of a (potentially)
compromised Qubes OS system. Thus, if you believe your system might have
been compromised (perhaps because of the bugs discussed in this
bulletin), then you should read and follow the procedure described here:
https://www.qubes-os.org/news/2017/04/26/qubes-compromise-recovery/
Patching
=========
The specific packages that resolve the problems discussed in this
bulletin are as follows:
For Qubes 3.2:
- Xen packages, version 4.6.6-30
For Qubes 4.0:
- Xen packages, version 4.8.2-2
The packages are to be installed in dom0 via the Qubes VM Manager or via
the qubes-dom0-update command, as follows:
For updates from the stable repository (not immediately available):
$ sudo qubes-dom0-update
For updates from the security-testing repository:
$ sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-dom0-security-testing
A system restart will be required afterwards.
These packages will migrate from the security-testing repository to the
current (stable) repository over the next two weeks after being tested
by the community.

1)
So, for discussion do most folks "patch immediately" or "wait for
stable" ??
2)
Guess, I need to start studying the PBRM(above) as I imagine I'll
be on 3.2 for some time, maybe till it's no longer updated if there
is going to be NO GUI VM Manager ever ??
