Recently, Nokia has been in touch with some CSSU devs and the council about a possible software update.

As the version number implies, this is just a simple fix for the DigiNotar issue.

As of version 16.8, the CSSU includes these security fixes, you should not try to update your device (the update will not show up in Application Manager).

The latest Nokia update will also include a fixed security control panel applet, this will be pulled into the CSSU right after it's released publicly so the CSSU can be right back on track.

The update should be out in a couple of days for everyone, again, please do not try to update if you're using the CSSU (using apt-get or similar methods).

Non-CSSU users, you can update. If you ever want to install the CSSU, the installer will work fine on PR1.3.1.

Amazing...

A little question...what is the DigiNotar issue? X_X

And another one...if I want to install this update with CSSU already installed, I have to wait for get CSSU updated or flash the n900, install the pr 1.3.1, and then install CSSU right?

thanks a lot

The CSSU already includes the core fixes, the UI is what needs to be updated, you should not try to install this if you want the CSSU, we'll provide the UI update as soon as it's out.

Elop has watched inception. He thinks we'll buy a WP out of sheer excitement for the update.
