========================================
-Version 1.11.27, Not Yet Released
+Version 1.11.27, 2016-02-01
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+* SECURITY: Avoid heap overflow in ECC point decoding. This could
+ likely result in remote code execution. CVE-2016-2195
+
+* SECURITY: Avoid one word heap overflow in P-521 reduction function.
+ This could potentially lead to remote code execution or other
+ attack. CVE-2016-2196.
+
+* SECURITY: Avoid infinite or near-infinite loop during modular square
+ root algorithm with invalid inputs. CVE-2016-2194
+
+* Add Blake2b hash function. GH #413
+
* Use m_ prefix on all member variables. GH #398 and #407
* Use final qualifier on many classes. GH #408
