The erts fix resolves a regression from the previous patch that prevented epmd from binding to localhost. The ssh update adds a security fix: the SSH client and server now reject packets not aligned to the cipher block size per RFC 4253 §6, with a timing-safe discard mechanism for CBC ciphers as a CVE-2008-5161 mitigation, while AEAD and encrypt-then-MAC modes disconnect immediately on structural errors. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
