Even though it is the last official version for it, good to see they are still fixing Windows 7 bugs.

And they will continue to do it for a while, for the ESR version

Why is the security fix the only change with no details

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe because it makes no sense to tell people about vulnerabilities in the code (even if they were fixed)?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Possibly because not everyone updates immediately, and therefore the security flaw could still be abused.
