• OpenBSD Errata: December 1st, 2017 (fktrace)

    From T.J. Townsend@21:1/5 to All on Fri Dec 1 18:10:02 2017
    An errata patch has been released for OpenBSD 6.2.

    The fktrace(2) system call had insufficient security checks.
    This update disables fktrace(2) entirely.

    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/errata62.html

    As this affects the kernel, a reboot will be needed after patching.
