Hey there Robie, First, thank you for the response. I appreciate it. I can’t imagine how many random mails must come through.
I’m looking at the xenial page… https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=putty&searchon=names&suite=xenial-updates§ion=all and knowing that a 0.71 for putty is out, and versions below have a possible RCE now, I wanted to poke to get the -updates suites up to date. Disco, cosmic and bionic are still < 0.71, too. I certainly don’t need this rolled into a stable release, but updating the -updates for security purposes seems to be worthwhile. If that’s not possible/probable, just let me know. And thank you again for your time, Jason From: Robie Basak <[email protected]> Date: Wednesday, March 20, 2019 at 4:10 PM To: Jason Healey <[email protected]> Cc: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Request: Putty 0.71 update Hi Jason, On Tue, Mar 19, 2019 at 09:18:52PM +0000, Healey, Jason wrote: There was a putty update this past weekend to get us to 0.71 and patching a few vulnerabilities. I was wondering if the repos could get the new version? Please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates for details. Security updates certainly qualify but if an update is solely for security purposes then the usual method is to cherry-pick patches to minimise regression risk. Hope that helps, Robie
