I don't think we have changed things since 2.3.2:

So yes, things are fine on our 2.4.0, 2.4.1, 2.4.2 and 2.4.3 releases.
Though for reasons of security and stability I'd strongly advise against
the former two.
2.4.2 and 2.4.3 are equivalent on Linux/Unix and available through all
mainstream distributions. In case of Debian use backports. If you need
TLS on Debian/Ubuntu, use our official packages:
