"Patch provided by the BoringSSL project."
This is an example of them doing better. A bug was found, reported to them, and they responded quickly giving advanced notice too.
- bch 11y agoThis is also an example of open source working, in general. Bug found in one project, applied to other.
- kyberias 11y agoI think the same could happen in closed source projects as well.
- frankzinger 11y agoTheoretically, but it's a lot more likely to happen if the projects have almost identical codebases (BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL).
