Hi, IT seems, centos6.3 does no longer get any updates esp security fixes as per readme here: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6.3/readme
Is there updated source RPMs that can be rebuilt and hand patched, for example, nss-util 3.21.0-2 or openssl 1.0.1e that can be safely used on CentOS 6.3? Any other options that you can shed some light on, highly appreciated for above examples. My apologies if this is not the right group to post such questions or if any existing literature available for same, please kindly refer to right place.
The other option is to use CentOS 6.8 updated package on 6.3, but I am not sure of any upstream and downstream dependencies in 6.3 without updating the rest of the userland from 6.3 to 6.8. Nonetheless, would this option be feasible?
Appreciated very much, Thank you.

Just a note to the readers of this centos-mirror mailing list: this issue is being discussed on the main centos mailing list starting at https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2016-November/161939.html so please direct your possible responses to that mailing list instead of using this centos-mirror mailing list. Thank you.
