rsyslog 3.20.1 (v3-stable) released - IMPORTANT SECURITY RELEASE
Hello,

We have just released rsyslog 3.20.1, a member of the v3-stable branch.
Most importantly, this release addresses a security vulnerability that
renders the $AllowedSender directive useless. This issue has already
been discussed here on the list. In addition to this, the release also
contains some bug fixes, including a memory leak that could cause real
trouble in environments that use TLS, as well as some very small
enhancements (that were considered small enough to be a applied to the
stable branch)

Change Log:

All users are advised to update to this release. It is urgently
recommended not only for those that would be vulnerable to the security
issue but also to anyone using TLS-based communications.

Releases for the beta and devel branches will hopefully be posted later
today. The git archive has all relevant patches if someone has an urgent
need.

As always, feedback is appreciated. We hope this release will be useful.
