That is correct. Thanks for alerting us to the issue. For most architectures c.q. installation methods this will be fixed automatically with the next point release (coming very soon) as the fixed version of openssh will be included on the CD images. What (I personally at least) had not realized yet is that that still leaves a few cases where network-console is included in the D-I initrds. This affects in particular s390, arm (iop32x/ixp4xx) and mipsel (cobalt). Stable Release team: Have fixed versions of openssh/openssl already been accepted into p-u? If they have and given the above I propose to do a new upload of debian-installer to be included in 4.0r4. If all goes well, they should be built with time to spare for the planned schedule but we would need quick responses if there are issues. Any objections against an upload? There would be no other changes. Cheers, FJP
