### Changes between 3.0.3 and 3.0.4 [xx XXX xxxx]
+ * In addition to the c_rehash shell command injection identified in
+ CVE-2022-1292, further bugs where the c_rehash script does not
+ properly sanitise shell metacharacters to prevent command injection have been
+ fixed.
+
+ When the CVE-2022-1292 was fixed it was not discovered that there
+ are other places in the script where the file names of certificates
+ being hashed were possibly passed to a command executed through the shell.
+
+ This script is distributed by some operating systems in a manner where
+ it is automatically executed. On such operating systems, an attacker
+ could execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the script.
+
+ Use of the c_rehash script is considered obsolete and should be replaced
+ by the OpenSSL rehash command line tool.
+ (CVE-2022-2068)

+ *Daniel Fiala, Tomáš Mráz*

* Case insensitive string comparison no longer uses locales. It has instead
been directly implemented.
