| according to repology, perl also has an update for security, though i am too unfamiliar with our perl to judge whether we already patched it or not | 15:18:33 | |
| Yep it is, was done in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/398359 | 15:21:20 | |
| nixpkgs was one of the first distros to get patched, and our security team has been added to the pre-release disclosure list for perl-security since then | 17:11:55 | |

| Hey Security Team In case you haven't seen the recent post on discourse, the Marketing Team is preparing this year's community survey. I am reaching out to teams to see if there are any questions they would like to add to the survey to better serve the work you all do. More details in the post linked below. https://discourse.nixos.org/t/community-feedback-requested-2025-nix-community-survey-planning/66155 | 03:29:17 | |
