Hey all, I've submitted a fix for chkrootkit port, to solve the false positives on FreeBSD 5 and higher: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=55919 The topic, btw, should be "Teach security/chkrootkit about FreeBSD 5", but it's not my first typo today. Maintainer, please approve. Authors, please see if you can include the changes. I also fixed a minor bug in chk_vdir.

Hi, I just had some issues with unvalidated certificates after the update of the mail/fetchmail port. The solution was to add the missing certificates manually, but that involved running the c_rehash script, that currently isn't installed. Of course, I could run it directly from src/crypto/openssl/tools/, but that isn't an option for users that don't have the source installed. So,

I'm running 7.0-RELEASE-i386 on Jetway's NC92-N230 mainboard. The board has one integrated RTL8168/8111 gigabit NIC as well as an expansion board with three RTL8168/8111 NICs. Why would the three NICs work while the onboard NIC does not? none2@pci0:1:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x816810ec chip=0x816810ec rev=0x02 hdr=0x00 vendor = 'Realtek Semiconductor' device

A client wants me to set up a mechanism whereby his customers can drop files securely into directories on his FreeBSD server; he also wants them to be able to retrieve files if needed. The server is already running OpenSSH, and he himself is using Windows clients (TeraTerm and WinSCP) to access it, so the logical thing to do seems to be to have his clients send and receive files via SFTP or SCP.

Dear all: With 7.2 approaching, I wanted to review the set of known network bug reports (especially panics, hangs, lock order reversals) relating to TCP, UDP, sockets, and routing in 7-STABLE. If you are aware of problems along these that you can confirm definitely occur with 7-STABLE checked out no earlier than 17 March, 2009, please drop me a private e-mail with a pointer to the thread,

Is anyone currently working on updating the Kerberos documentation in the Handbook? if so, I'd like to help. If not, I'm hoping to find someone who can get me up to speed on the FreeBSD docbook extensions :-) -T -- "The truly paranoid administrator may wish to place motion detectors in the air ducts." - Practical UNIX & Internet Security, 2nd Edition

Hi, FreeBSD libc Berkeley DB can leak sensitive information to database files. The problem is that it writes uninitialized memory obtained from malloc(3) to database files. You can use this simple test program to reproduce the behavior: http://www.saunalahti.fi/~jh3/dbtest.c Run the program and see the resulting test.db file which will contain a sequence of 0xa5 bytes directly from malloc(3).

Recently i have been using a dialup 56k account to access the net and have noticed that when my ssh session times out and I am editing a file in ` ee ' the system goes to 99% cpu usage and stays like this till the pid is killed. This is a standard user account (not root/su) Would a user be able to create a denial of service condition on the remote system using this bug? (sorry if this is

I've had an informal, third or fourth hand report of kernel instability when running Tor under load on unidentified versions of FreeBSD. Obviously, this is a bit vague as bug reports go, but I'm interested in seeing if anyone has had real experience with this happening, and might be interested in helping to track it down. If there are kernel crashes, I'm specifically looking for

hail, I have an old AthlonXP 1700+ running 7-STABLE: FreeBSD xxx 7.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 7.1-PRERELEASE #1: Thu Nov 13 23:54:59 BRT 2008 root@xxx:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/xxx i386 where I have two 750GB Seagate SATA Disks. They are divided as two slices, around the first 120GB are gathered in gmirror, and what left is in gstripe. so that's whats going on. if the machine locks, and fsck comes to

Hi, Two quick questions that I can't seem to find answers for using google. 1) is is possible to listen outside an ipfw firewall - that is have ethereal record the packets before ipfw starts dropping them? If so how? 2) Is there an api to ipfw that will let me manipulate rules, query stats etc? I need something faster than running the command line binary? Thanks John

Greetings, I'm a little curious about the way FORBIDDEN knob is used in ports system. Traditionally, we use it to mark a port which have known security issue, with the new vuxml mechanism, are we still doing the same thing when necessary? Or, only the "critical" ones, for example, remote exploitable buffer overruns, etc? If the second assumption (only critical ones are marked

Howdy, <this messages is cross posted in freebsd-security and freebsd-net> I'm seeking current cryptographic coprocessors supported in FreeBSD 8.x.

On which versions of FreeBSD is it now possible to un-reserve ports? ( I've been waiting for this since forever ... have spent countless days - $$$ - trying to install workarounds, only to junk them later. I've even been paid a consulting gig to develop this, and declined to deploy it on my own servers :-/ ) iang
