[Xen-devel] Uncontrolled disclosure of advisories XSA-26 to XSA-32

[Ian Jackson <Ian.Jackson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We just sent the message below to the security advisory predisclosure
list, relating to the release of XSA-26 to XSA-32.  As you will see,
these have now been publicly released.

We'll have a proper conversation about this in a week or two.

Thanks for your attention,
Ian.

We regret to announce that a member of the predisclosure list
discovered today that they had failed to abort their disclosure
process in response to the embargo extension for XSA-26 to XSA-32.
The information in XSA-26 to XSA-32 has been publicly available since
at least Friday the 30th of November.

They reported the situation to us.  Under the circumstances we must
regard the embargo as at an end.  All members of the predisclosure
list are advised to publish and deploy their updates for XSA-26 to
XSA-32 inclusive as soon as they are able to do so.

Updated versions of XSA-26 to XSA-32, stating that they are now
public, will be sent out shortly - both to the predisclosure list and
to the public lists, according to the usual process.

As usual when we have had difficulties with the process the Xen.org
security team will conduct a full post mortem.  The post mortem will
consider the decision to extend the embargo, as well as the decision
now to regard the embargo as over.  As before, to allow members of the
community to concentrate entirely on patching their systems right now,
we will delay starting that conversation until at least Thursday the
13th of December.
