2.7’s release cycle is still in progress. Robert would be the one to comment on any release date for that.

I would recommend the debian maintainers apply everything in the pcidss branch as I’ve put everything critical in that branch, properly backported to 2.6.

Hi thanks for the info, Its not in debian 7 wheezy yet, Do you have the official merged patch so I can point that patch to debian maintainers? they are using 2.6 but should be ok to backport if the patch is for 2.7

Thanks!

I’m not sure what news you’re looking for. It’s been patched since 10/05/2012.

Could you be more specific?
