 +
 +On 2015-01-19, 4.0.3.1-20150119 was released with the following changes:
 +
 +    - Windows: Win32 OpenSSL updates from 1.0.1j to 1.0.1L, which fixes the CVEs announced on 2015-01-08.
 +    - Windows: Cygwin OpenSSL updated from 1.0.1j-1 to 1.0.1k-1, which fixes the CVEs announced on 2015-01-08.
 +    - Windows: Bundle new version of VcXsrv: 1.15.2.2-xp+vc2013+x2go1. The differences from 1.15.2.1-xp+vc2013+x2go1 are that its bundled OpenSSL has been updated to 1.0.1k, and that xorg-server CVE-2014-8091..8103 have been fixed.
 +    - Windows: Update libssh from 0.6.3 to 0.6.4 (while maintaining Pageant support). This fixes CVE-2014-8132, which shouldn't affect x2goclient because x2goclient uses the SSH client functionality, not the SSH server functionality. 0.6.4 also added 4 features related to ECDSA keys.
 +
 +As with most vulnerabilities in 3rd party software, the X2Go project has not done an analysis of whether X2Go Client was actually affected by these vulnerabilities (except for libssh CVE-2014-8132.) However, as a precaution, we are releasing this updated build of X2Go Client for Windows. Unless an analysis is performed for each vulnerability, we strongly encourage all users to update.
