The developer.r-project.org site lists plans for releases, and no plan is in place yet for a 4.4.1 release.

You can look at the history of previous versions if you want to make a guess:

4.3.1: June, 2023
4.2.1: June, 2022
4.1.1: August, 2021
4.0.1: June, 2020
3.6.1: July, 2019
3.5.1: July, 2018
3.4.1: June, 2017
3.3.1: June, 2016

So it's a good guess that it will happen before September, and better than even odds it will be before July.

I help to coordinate the USEPA's R user group.  We have over 500 members and 
our security officer has required us to update to R version 4.4.0 because of 
the security vulnerability to versions prior.  However, we cannot download the 
patched version because it does not have a signed certificate and Microsoft 
Defender won't allow us to install it.

Most of our users rely on the RStudio viewer pane so we are in a bit of a 
quandary.  We suspect other government agencies are impacted by this as well.

Can you give me an estimated time for when another official version will be 
released with the patch included?  I may be able to ask our security officer to 
allow us to delay our install until that official version is released.  
Alternatively, if the patched version could have a signed certificate, that 
would allow us to install it.

Thank you.
