• OpenBSD Errata: November 16th, 2019 (ifioctl)

    From T.J. Townsend@21:1/5 to All on Sun Nov 17 01:55:02 2019
    Errata patches for the kernel have been released for OpenBSD 6.5 and 6.6.

    A regular user could change some network interface parameters due to
    missing checks in the ioctl(2) system call.

    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/errata65.html
    https://www.openbsd.org/errata66.html

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