I'm opposed to any change to the hash values of strings in maintenance releases, so I guess I'm opposed to your patch in principle. See my next message for an alternative proposal. > The vulnerability is public since one month, it is maybe time to fix > it before it is widely exploited. I don't think there is any urgency. The vulnerability has been known for more than five years now. From creating a release to the point where the change actually arrives at end users, many months will pass.
