+ OpenBSD Release Protected Against Buffer Overflow Attacks,
+ SANS Newsbytes, April 16, 2003
+
+ A description of the work done in 3.3 to prevent buffer overflow attacks.
+ The editors speak strongly in favor of the team's efforts
+ in producing reliable, bug-free software;
+ quoting two of them:
+
(Ranum): It's GREAT to see that at least a few people are smart enough
+ to try to attack problems like this systemically, rather than keeping
+ stuck in the fruitless "penetrate and patch" while loop. This is how
+ to make progress in security: fundamental protections.
+
(Shpantzer): Initiatives like this should be taught as case studies
+ in computer science courses at the undergraduate level.
