I've just read the OpenSSL announcement. The issue has been downgraded to critical but we are going to need to new Tomcat Native release. There are a couple of stack overflow bugs in certificate verification so Tomcat could be accepted via CLIENT-CERT.

I've been following this as well, and I agree that we need a flurry of releases. It's too bad we decided to bundle libtcnative.dll with Tomcat releases. *NIX users don't have to wait for a release...

I think we should have an immediate VOTE on a tcnative release which includes an updated statically-linked Windows DLL. Because there are no code changes (?) since the last tcnative release... can we simply fast-forward to a release-by-acclamation? ASF probably says no to that. :/

Hi all,

I've just seen the heads up from the OpenSSL project that there will be
a 3.0.7 release on 2022-12-01 that will address a critical
vulnerability. We won't know the details of the vulnerability until the
release announcement. Given that it may trigger a Tomcat Native release
my current thinking is:

- prep for November releases as normal
- review the OpenSSL issue once public
- roll a Tomcat Native release if necessary
- update to the new Tomcat Native release of there is one
- roll the Tomcat releases

Do we want to pick up an updated migration tool as well?

Maybe, we're in the process of integrating a PR for the tool. The
submitter says it makes it run faster.
