• OpenBSD Errata: December 20th, 2018 (recvwait)

    From T.J. Townsend@21:1/5 to All on Thu Dec 20 13:35:01 2018
    Errata patches for the kernel have been released for OpenBSD 6.3 and 6.4.

    While recv(2) with the MSG_WAITALL flag was receiving control messages
    from a socket, the kernel could panic.

    Binary updates for the amd64, i386, and arm64 platforms are available
    via the syspatch utility. Source code patches can be found on the
    respective errata page:

    https://www.openbsd.org/errata63.html
    https://www.openbsd.org/errata64.html

    As these affect the kernel, a reboot will be needed after patching.
