The Register: We won’t tell you what this patch does, but apply it NOW

There’s an extremely serious security problem with GroupWise that requires an immediate patch, but the problem is apparently so bad that Novell can’t even bring itself to tell its users what it is.

The Utah-based software firm has issued an email to its GroupWise 5.5 Enhancement Pack or GroupWise 6 users asking them that to apply the “Padlock Fix” to their servers immediately but isn’t telling anybody why it’s needed, lest hackers exploit the problem on unpatched systems.
