I doubt very seriously that there will be announcements for security
issues.  At least I know of no plans to do so for Stream.

Hi Olivier,

this question got several answers. Since C8 was release updates on 
announces ML are not available because the tool that provides 
notification does not work with the new tool that is used to build 
packages.


Actually I use RHEL advisory, but this require a RH account (not 
subscription).

Hello Alessandro,

Thanks for your answer. Actually my question was about more 8-Stream. 
Sorry. I think my message was not clear.


I knew that for CentOS 8, we have to wait but it was before the 
transition between 8 and stream.


So I'm now actually worried for the future. I think it's important to 
have security advisories for a distribution. All the main distributions 
have a security team and I always found that it was a lack for CentOS 
even if of course we could use the RedHat advisories.


CentOS Stream is a big change and something very different so I would 
love to know if advisoires publications will be part of that new project.


Thanks for your answers

Regards,
Olivier

Hello dear CentOS community,

I'm writing on this mailing list because I'm discovering CentOS 8 
after several years of practice on CentOS 7.


One of my main concern about a distribution is Bug Fixes and Security 
Fixes. For CentOS 7, all fixes where identified on CentOS-Announces 
lists with CESA, CEBA and CEEA which is a good thing in order to 
identify how a distribution can be broken, vulnerable.


However, I didn't find any announcement for CentOS 8. I tried to 
investigate about any changes about announcement policies but I didn't 
find anything reliable.


So I'm asking here what is exactly the status about announcements for 
CentOS 8 ? Is it a thing who totally disappeared replaced by Red Hat 
advisories or is it something different ? Or maybe it is just not 
planned yet ?


Explanations would be very welcomed.

Thanks for your answer

Olivier Bonhomme
