It is not updating; as I noted it appears this security patch was NOT backported and thus 12.2-RELEASE does not "see" it.
ok, then I guess I need to post to -security? Because the notice suggests that it was.
You cannot go to "-STABLE" via freebsd-update; to run -STABLE you must be doing buildworld/buildkernel from source. I can confirm that 12.2-STABLE *does* have the patch as I checked it recently.
I know. The reason I mentioned -STABLE at all was for the purpose of comparative versioning of openssl. My 12-stable machines all update via source.The issue I'm posting about concerns systems following 12.2-R that *only* use freebsd-update to keep up-to-date. These do not have sources installed. As you've mentioned, it seems the security patch was not backported.
