For GOS 21.04, a new patch level is available.
The release implements an important security update:
- The package libxml2 included in GOS was upgraded to version 2.9.4+dfsg1-7+deb10u4 as the former version 2.9.4+dfsg1-7+deb10u3 is vulnerable to CVE-2022-29824 (#GOS-879, #GSI-88).
Please note that this is a precautionary measure taken by Greenbone, but we currently have no information about actual exploitation of the vulnerabilities.
We recommend everyone to upgrade to GOS 21.04.18.
In total, GOS 21.04.18 covers 2 improvements. For a complete list of changes, see the Roadmap & Lifecycle page:
