Sure, but we have to compose between disclosing too early, ruining
the west coast's morning and too late, ruining eastern dinners :-)
Maybe this one will be remembered as the Valentine's bug.

I think we're mostly good as it is now, but I'm still having some
backports to finish for now.


Do you know if Vincent Bernat will be publishing his PPA quickly 
afterwards ?


Yes, I'll be ready.


For the Ubuntu PPA, there will be a small delay until the packages are 
built (I'll push the source at the disclosure time, but Launchpad will 
take a few minutes to build them). So, you should expect them a bit later.

Usually Vincent is pretty fast, but here it might request a bit of time
due to the number of builds involved. Regardless, do not stress too much,
the situation is not good but your systems won't crash in the hour after
the release. And in the worst case you'll just have to temporarily copy-
paste a workaround rule in your public frontends and wait for the next
day to look at this calmly. My goal with the upfront announce is to make
most users see it so that they still have time to reserve an update slot
if needed, it was not to trigger an unjustified panic wave.

Thanks,
Willy

Objet: [*EXT*] Important HAProxy releases to come next week

Hello,

we've been notified of a vulnerability in haproxy that will deserve a
new series of releases for all branches. As such I'm not going to issue
2.7.3 today and will postpone it a bit to avoid confusion. The releases
for 2.7, 2.6, 2.5, 2.4, 2.2, and 2.0 are planned for Tuesday 14th around
5pm CET.

We do have a config workaround for the vulnerability that works with all
versions, though it's not pretty (as any workaround). I'll share it with
the announce on Tuesday, but as always it's better to update rather than
start to accumulate config hacks. I wanted to mention this to raise
awareness and help to speed up deployment once the issue is fully
disclosed.

Thanks for your understanding, and have a nice week-end.
Willy

PS: don't worry, your process will not crash over the week-end :-)
