Perhaps the time of the season is to blame, but there has been very little news from Novell recently. The same cannot be said about security news however. Here is a report from
yesterday:
Novell releases two security updates
Novell has released two security updates, the first of which closes a hole in Novell NetMail which can be exploited to compromise a system running version 3.5.2 of the software. The second update fixes three vulnerabilities in Novell BorderManager 3.8. The most serious of these vulnerabilities involes a flaw in Novell Client Trust.
One might argue that
Novell does not keep its eyes on the ball, either.
Ever so often, I make it a point to glance at the upcoming advisories from TippingPoint’s Zero Day Initiative and wonder about the status of these “high risk” issues that are more than 300 days old.
Novell is there also.
