This is a reminder that the Athena 9.0.28 patch release for IRIX is
scheduled for this evening.  Changes include:

  * Fix the AFS denial of service vulnerability.
  * Turn off the unused native xfsmd service to close a remote
    vulnerability.
  * Fix a local security hole due to the permissions of an icon file.

If you have a machine set AUTOUPDATE=false, you can update it manually
after the release goes out by doing a console login as root and
running "update_ws".

Please send questions or comments to release-team@mit.edu.
