Hi,

So I asked upstream about the specific commits which fixed this bug
here:
https://tls.mbed.org/discussions/bug-report-issues/question-about-cve-2015-5291

They seemed pretty resistive to the idea of just adding specific
patches on top of 1.3.9, and if you look at the changelog there are a
number of other security bugs which seem important but don't have CVEs
because they couldn't be triggered remotely.
https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls/blob/mbedtls-1.3.14/ChangeLog

One thing which was suggested was to use 1.3.14 and then disable at
compile time all the new features which may affect the ABI and then
revert the SONAME change, but is doing that actually allowed for the
security archive or will the update be too big?

(I haven't actually done any of this yet, I'm just checking it'll be
OK before I spend my time on it)

Thanks,
James
