UGANet,
An update to the Drupal 7.x and 8.x patches released on March 28th was released today.
https://www.drupal.org/sa-core-2018-004
Please patch any affected systems as soon as possible. This issue is a new critical remote code execution vulnerability and it is only a matter of time before attackers attempt to exploit it.
Thank you,

Subject: Heads up for folks hosting Drupal sites
This is just a heads up for folks running Drupal sites.
Last week the Drupal security team announced that today, Mar. 28th, between the hours of 18:00-19:30 UTC, they will be releasing new versions of Drupal for both Drupal 7 and Drupal 8. This patch is for Drupal core; not for a module.
I assume that since we were given a one week warning for this patch, this is likely to address a pretty bad, and pretty easy hole to exploit. Expect zero day exploits on this, in other words.
You probably want to make sure your sites are patched as quickly as you can, as soon as the patch drops.
