 +===== Security Update: 4.0.2.0+build2 =====
 +
 +On 2014-05-27, 4.0.2.0+build2 was released with the following changes:
 +
 +  * VcXsrv was updated from 1.4.3.1 to 1.4.3.2. The difference is that VcXsrv 1.14.3.2 has backported fixes for X.Org vulnerabilities CVE-2014-0209, CVE-2014-0210, and CVE-2014-0211. (All are from May 13, 2014) (Note that we have not determined whether or not X2Go could actually trigger them. They are however now fixed in the VcXsrv code.)
 +
 +All users of 4.0.2.0 are strongly encouraged to update to 4.0.2.0+build2. This includes users of the "misc" fonts and "full" fonts builds.
