OK, an official OpenSSH advisory was released, see here: <URL: http://www.mindrot.org/pipermail/openssh-unix-announce/2003-September/000063.html > The fix is currently in FreeBSD -CURRENT and -STABLE. It will be applied to the security branches as well today. Attached are patches: buffer46.patch -- For FreeBSD 4.6-RELEASE and later buffer45.patch -- For FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE and

In FreeBSD 5.x only telnet/telnetd works 'out of box' with kerberos. Why ftp/ftpd, ssh/sshd and cvs do not support kerberos ? Thanks!

This affects only 3.7p1 and 3.7.1p1. The advice to leave PAM disabled is far from heartening, nor is the semi-lame blaming the PAM spec for implementation bugs. I happen to like OPIE for remote access. Subject: Portable OpenSSH Security Advisory: sshpam.adv This document can be found at: http://www.openssh.com/txt/sshpam.adv 1. Versions affected: Portable OpenSSH versions 3.7p1

Hello Everyone, You may have seen the recent announcement regarding new OpenSSL vulnerabilities. <URL: http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20030930.txt > Just thought I'd drop a line to head off the usual questions. :-) Don't panic. The vulnerability is denial-of-service. OpenSSL 0.9.7c will be imported into -CURRENT and -STABLE over the next couple of days, and included

It seems (at least for me) the patches on ftp.freebsd.org are out of date for the 03:12 security advisory (openssh). ftp2.freebsd.org has them fine. I'm wondering if this is a mirror issue or perhaps round-robin DNS problem? What compounds the issue is that right now the old openssh 3.7 patches are there (on ftp.freebsd.org), but not the 3.7.1 patches (which can be found on

In regards to FreeBSD-SA-03:05.xdr, does anyone know which static binaries or tools under /bin or /sbin actually use that problem code? The recent XDR fixes the xdrmem_getlong_aligned(), xdrmem_putlong_aligned(), xdrmem_getlong_unaligned(), xdrmem_putlong_unaligned(), xdrmem_getbytes(), and/or xdrmem_putbytes() functions, but it is difficult to know what uses these (going backwards manually).

Cisco released an advisory about their ntp client and server having a bug http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/707/NTP-pub.shtml Is there a common code base at all that would have relevance to the code in FreeBSD ?
