Advisory:
========================

Updated quassel packages fix security vulnerability:

Quassel through 0.13.1, when --require-ssl is enabled, launches without SSL or
TLS support if a usable X.509 certificate is not found on the local system
(CVE-2021-34825).

Comment 3 David Walser 2021-07-26 16:03:44 CEST
Advisory:
========================

Updated quassel packages fix security vulnerability:

Quassel through 0.13.1, when --require-ssl is enabled, launches without SSL or
TLS support if a usable X.509 certificate is not found on the local system
(CVE-2021-34825).

Also, the default IRC server has been changed from Freenode to Libera Chat, as
upstream has moved their #quassel channel there.
