    Hello,
    
    To help clear up any confusion about the Discovery Dates associated 
    with the group of advisories that we are publishing today, I should
    explain the situation.
    
    We are publishing our advisories in groups after each group is approved
    internally.  With the exception of the Microsoft issues, none of the 
    vulnerabilities have been posted or discussed in public forums or lists.
    
    The discovery date that we list in the advisories refers to the date on
    which we discovered the advisory, rather than the date that we made the
    information public.  Since none of these vulnerabilities (except for the 
    Solaris CACHEFSD) have been actively exploited / seen in the wild, we have
    been patient in working with and waiting for vendors to complete
    vulnerability validation, and for patches to be developed and posted to
    vendor sites.
    
    We plan to publish more advisories in the near future, and hopefully in a
    much more timely fashion.
