@MastodonEngineering heya, the linked security advisories 404.

This has happened a few times recently, may I suggest adding that to your release checklist ?

@4censord @MastodonEngineering Isn't that intentional? They'll become public once instances had sufficient time to update.

@niklaskorz it usually isnt no
The advisories are intended to give enough context so you can appropriately chose when to update and such.
Mostly because from fixes reverse engineering the vulnerability is usually very simple

This is destinct from e.g. proof of concept code, which often is not published right away.

@4censord They are now published!

@MastodonEngineering @4censord oh wow, they're not supposed to 404???
I assumed that was desired (but also super frustrating to me, because I want to find out what they're about).

This has been the case for like.. every release, forever.
Well, if not, look forward to your checklists being updated so this step is no longer missed.
