News: Good and bad news about NVIDIA and Linux drivers.

NVIDIA would be dropping pre-Fermi support and will be removing all support for graphics processors prior to the GeForce 400 "Fermi" series.
NVIDIA will support newly-dropped GPUs on Linux through 2019, but also will come with support for new Linux kernels and X servers.
NVIDIA fixes for critical bugs, will be included in 304.* legacy releases through the end of 2017.
No further releases from the 71.86.* legacy driver series are planned.

And this it's wonderful for Linux users.

News: A major security problem with the Linux operating system.

If you read this article will see this can be one big issue.
I try to find the bug under Bugzilla. I think is already here and will solve it. Also under lib/x509/verify.c in GnuTLS before 3.1.22 and 3.2.x before 3.2.12 does not properly handle unspecified errors when verifying X.509 certificates from SSL servers, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers via a crafted certificate.

The GnuTLS is a secure communications library implementing the SSL, TLS and DTLS protocols and technologies around them:

It provides a simple C language application programming interface (API) to access the secure communications protocols as well as APIs to parse and write X.509, PKCS #12, OpenPGP and other required structures. It is aimed to be portable and efficient with focus on security and interoperability.

Updated gnutls packages that fix one security issue read more about this here.
