Hi List, did I miss a security annoucement about openssh? This morning after doing a routine online update I found myself presented with the option to install version 3.7.1p2-111 over the previous version 3.7.1p2-18, yet don't recall having seen an annoucement. But then, after looking through my emails I haven't seen any suse-security traffic at all for perhaps a day or two. Did the list drop off the edge of cyberspace or did it just dump my address? Anyway, I'd be interested to learn what 3.7.1p2-111 is about and what issues it is supposed to fix. Cheers, Alex.

Thanks for the link. I guess it didn't make it to a security announcement then because it wasn't considered a security fix? I don't know 'bout y'all, but for me any upgrade to openssh is a security fix. At least I'd like to see it announced on suse-security. And again, my apologies if it was and I just happened to overlook it. Cheers, Alex.

No, there was not a security flaw that was fixed by this upgrade. It was only an administrative issue. If you do not install this upgrade you do not increase your system's risk of being compromised.
