The branch main has been updated by mandree: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/ports/commit/?id=cccf1379f3cfc4148193c63927393bcf9eda1264 commit cccf1379f3cfc4148193c63927393bcf9eda1264 Author: Matthias Andree <mandree@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2025-01-31 21:06:09 +0000 Commit: Matthias Andree <mandree@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2025-01-31 21:07:29 +0000 security/easy-rsa: report weak build-ca crypto on CA private keys This version folds the message into files/pkg-message.in (which overwrote pkg-message in PORTREVISION 2 of this change.) By adding to UPDATING and pkg-message, and bumping PORTREVISION so as to trigger updates that show these messages so that easyrsa users can re-encrypt their CA private keys with AES instead of Triple-DES. It is pointless to add vuln.xml, supported port branch versions, main and 2025Q1, already carry a bugfixed Easy-RSA version.
