Hi !
As there were a few security fixes pending and 2.4.34-pre1 has
not received enough validation, I’ve released 2.4.33.1 with the
most important fixes. All those fixes are already in
2.4.34-pre1.
Particularly important ones are :
Hotfix patches for older versions should follow within a short
time.
Regards,
Willy
