  <o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Old news
• 05:30
  m-relay
  <x​mrcookies:envs.net> Was there a fix? Or is it just not that big of a deal as they make it seem?

  <o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> They discovered it because of the fix

  <j​effro256:monero.social> Compiling and running the latest commits on master branch or release-v0.18 will mitigate the attack
• 13:01
  m-relay
  <j​0j0xmr:monero.social> Is there a release date for v0.18.4?
• 13:02
  NorrinRadd
  probably very soon
• 13:04
  m-relay
  <s​yntheticbird:monero.social> Soon, there is only one item left on the checklist
• 13:06
  selsta
  yes, i would like vtnerd to give a final approval before we merge it, afterwards we can tag v0.18.4.0

  m-relay
  <e​longated:matrix.org> Is this related to the exploit?
• 13:10
  NorrinRadd
  seems like it elongated
• 13:29
  selsta
  no, not related to the exploit. that has already been merged.

  m-relay
  <n​7483:monero.social> What usability difference does marking a node as non trusted in GUI have?
• 16:11
  m-relay
  <s​yntheticbird:monero.social> None, this will just avoid making use of RPC calls that may decrease your privacy, also this question is better suited for #monero:monero.social

  also uses more data before initial sync
