[Francis Christopher Liu <to...@gmail.com>]

The HBase team is happy to announce the immediate availability of Apache
HBase 1.3.4

Apache HBase is an open-source, distributed, versioned, non-relational
database. Apache HBase gives you low latency random access to billions of
rows with millions of columns atop non-specialized hardware. To learn more
about HBase, see https://hbase.apache.org/.

HBase 1.3.4 is the fourth maintenance release in the HBase 1.3 line,
continuing on the theme of bringing a stable, reliable database to the
Hadoop and NoSQL communities. This release includes one bug fix and
an operational improvement done in the month and a half since 1.3.4.

All users of previous 1.3.z releases are encouraged to upgrade to either
this release or the latest in our stable release line, which is currently
1.4.9.

Critical changes include:

* HBASE-22058 - upgrade thrift dependency to 0.9.3.1 (fixes a CVE)
* HBASE-21926 - Profiler servlet

The full list of fixes included in this release is available at:
