    Here is the official e-mail. And another reason to give
    people some amount of time before you do a full disclosure.

    - ----- Forwarded message from Ben Laurie <ben@algroup.co.uk> -----

    On Friday 1st March 2002 I released a security alert for Apache-SSL,
    announcing a fix to a buffer overflow. Unfortunately, because the fix
    had to be released in haste (since I had not been alerted before public
    disclosure), the fix had a bug.

    Fortunately, the bug did not leave Apache-SSL vulnerable, but it did
    prevent correct operation.

    I have, therefore, released an updated version of Apache-SSL today,
    1.3.22+1.47, which is available from all the usual places.

    Users of versions prior to this should upgrade immediately.

    Cheers,

    Ben.
