• OpenBSD Errata: February 2nd, 2018 (kernel)

    From T.J. Townsend@21:1/5 to All on Sat Feb 3 04:55:01 2018
    Errata patches for a number of kernel issues have been released for
    OpenBSD 6.2 and 6.1.

    Specially crafted IPsec AH packets with IP options or IPv6 extension
    headers could cause a crash or hang.

    Processing IPv6 fragments could incorrectly access memory of an mbuf
    chain that is not within an mbuf, which may cause a crash.

    If the EtherIP tunnel protocol was disabled, IPv6 packets were not
    discarded properly, which causes a double free.

    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 pages:

    https://www.openbsd.org/errata61.html
    https://www.openbsd.org/errata62.html

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