Topic: Does openwrt have security updates?

The content of this topic has been archived on 20 Apr 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

I am using Ubuntu on desktop and I noticed today that I received a security update for lighttpd - the webserver I used to run on openwrt. I was just wandering, does OpenWRT provide any security patches at all? Or does it not affect OpenWRT? I do not want to criticise anyone, since I am aware that all this is volunteer work, I am just curious.

For OpenWrt, I have never heard of any security update, or any update other than a complete upgrade.

The discussion might have continued from here.
