I don't understand the following statement in the
pri-vuln.txt in section "Patches":

"Version 7.4.6, while no longer being project
supported received a patch and is also not vulnerable."

What was patched when this version is not vulnerable?
Or do you mean it is not vulnerable after the patch got applied?


My apologies, this is a type that skipped past all proof-reading. It
should
say "7.6.6", which is the v7 version released today. v7.4.x is not only
non-project supported, it's also heavily outdated and missing many other
patches as well (just to point this out).

This still does not answer the above questions, it just changes the
version number in your statement which led to my question.
