• OpenBSD Errata: September 2nd, 2019 (frag6ecn)

    From T.J. Townsend@21:1/5 to All on Fri Sep 6 17:00:02 2019
    Errata patches for the kernel have been released for OpenBSD 6.4 and 6.5.

    When processing ECN bits on incoming IPv6 fragments, the kernel could crash. Per default pf fragment reassemble prevents the crash.

    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/errata64.html
    https://www.openbsd.org/errata65.html

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