Hi All. :-) Do the vulnerabilities recently found in OpenSSL versions 3.0.0 to 3.0.6 affect Monero or any other crypto-currency?

Steven_M: It could

Depends if your Monero binaries were compiled against it.

official binaries don't use it

"any other cryptocurrency" - you'll have to ask in any other place but here

hyc: Torr: Okay, thanks both of you. :-)

Cheers

My next question is: Is Monero 0.18.0.0-release still supported and safe to use, for the next week or so? I plan to upgrade soon, but would rather not do it immediately.

Steven_M: Again, depends on the binaries u're using. Many distros link to Openssl.

Steven_M: yes, you can use v0.18.0.0 or newer

Torr: I'm using the official binaries from get.monero.org. My 2nd question wasn't really OpenSSL specific, it was more about the fact that Monero 0.18.1.2 has been released and I'm still using 0.18.0.0. Sorry for the confusion.

Oh, nevermind me then.

Torr: So, putting OpenSSL aside, is Monero 0.18.0.0-release still supported and safe to use for the time being?

Pretty much my lad.

omg Steven_M, you're going to blow up the whole Monero ecosystem if you use that version.

Torr: cool, thanks :-)

Mochi101: No need to be sarcastic, I was just checking.

:)

Oh I forgot this wasn't #monroe-pools

Mochi101: Okay :-)

See ya folks
