### Changes between 3.3.0 and 3.3.1 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ * Fixed potential use after free after SSL_free_buffers() is called.
+
+ The SSL_free_buffers function is used to free the internal OpenSSL
+ buffer used when processing an incoming record from the network.
+ The call is only expected to succeed if the buffer is not currently
+ in use. However, two scenarios have been identified where the buffer
+ is freed even when still in use.
+
+ The first scenario occurs where a record header has been received
+ from the network and processed by OpenSSL, but the full record body
+ has not yet arrived. In this case calling SSL_free_buffers will succeed
+ even though a record has only been partially processed and the buffer
+ is still in use.
+
+ The second scenario occurs where a full record containing application
+ data has been received and processed by OpenSSL but the application has
+ only read part of this data. Again a call to SSL_free_buffers will
+ succeed even though the buffer is still in use.
+
+ ([CVE-2024-4741])

* Fixed an issue where checking excessively long DSA keys or parameters may
be very slow.
