! <a name=atapi></a>
! <li><font color=#009000><strong>HARDWARE SUPPORT</strong></font><br>
! Some ATAPI cdroms which do not support the full mandatory command set,
! (e.g. ATAPI_READ_CD_CAPACITY) do not work with the acd(4) driver.
! A patch is
! <a href=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.3/common/acd.patch>
! available here.</a>
! <p>
! <a name=chpass></a>
! <li><font color=#009000><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font><br>
! Chpass(1) has a file descriptor leak which allows an
! attacker to modify /etc/master.passwd.
! <a href=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.3/common/chpass.patch>
! A source code patch exists which remedies this problem.</a>

! <a name=resid></a>
! <li><font color=#009000><strong>RELIABILITY FIX</strong></font><br>
! Calling readv(2) with iov_len < 0 or > INT_MAX would result in a
! kernel panic.  This is the third revision of this patch.
! <a href=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.3/common/resid.patch>
! A source code patch exists which remedies this problem.</a>
! <p>
! <a name=inetd></a>
! <li><font color=#009000><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font><br>
! Inetd had a file descriptor leak.  A patch is

! available here.</a>
! <p>
! <a name=unionfs></a>
! <li><font color=#009000><strong>BUG FIX</strong></font><br>
! As shipped, unionfs had some serious problems.
! <a href=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.3/common/unionfs.patch>
! A patch is available to solve this</a>.
! <p>
! <a name=fdalloc></a>
! <li><font color=#009000><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font><br>
! Some non-allocated file descriptors have implied uses according to
! system libraries, and hence setuid and setgid processes should not
! be executed with these descriptors unallocated.  A patch which forces
! setuid and setgid processes to have some descriptors in fd slots
! 0, 1, and 2 is 
! <a href=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.3/common/fdalloc.patch>
! available here.</a>
! <p>
! <a name=xlib></a>
! <li><font color=#009000><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font><br>
! Vulnerabilities have been found in the X11, Xt, Xaw and Xmu
! libraries. These affect xterm and all other setuid-root programs that
! use these libraries. The problems are associated with buffer overflows
! in code that processes user-supplied data. The Xt library problems
! include those fixed in TOG's recent public patch 3 for X11R6.3. All
! releases of XFree86 up to and including 3.3.2 patch 1 and the version
! distributed with OpenBSD are vulnerable to some or all of these
! problems.
! These problems are fixed in XFree86 patch 2.
! <a href=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.3/common/XFree86-3.3.2.2.patch>
! The 2nd source patch</a> for these problems, specifically adapted to the
! OpenBSD 2.3 X11 tree, is available now.
! <p>
! <a name=kill></a>
! <li><font color=#009000><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font><br>
! The kill(2) system call previously would permit a large set of signals to
! be delivered to setuid or setgid processes.  If such processes were using
! those signals in dubious ways, this could have resulted in security
! problems of various kinds.
! <a href=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.3/common/kill.patch>
! The fourth revision of a source code patch which solves the problem is
! available.</a>
! <p>
! <a name=immutable></a>
! <li><font color=#009000><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font><br>
! A possible new security problem exists if you rely on securelevels and
! immutable or append-only files or character devices.  The fix does not
! permit mmap'ing of immutable or append-only files which are otherwise
! writeable, as the VM system will bypass the meaning of the file flags
! when writes happen to the file.
! <a href=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.3/common/immutable.patch>
! A source code patch exists which remedies this problem.</a>
! <p>
! <a name=ipsec></a>
! <li><font color=#009000><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font><br>
! If IPSEC communication is attempted by starting photurisd(8) (which is
! disabled by default), a system crash may be evoked from remote if
! an attacker uses some classes of invalid packets.
! <a href=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.3/common/ipsec.patch>
! A source code patch exists which remedies this problem.</a>
! <p>
! <a name=xterm-xaw></a>
! <li><font color=#009000><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font><br>
! As stated in CERT advisory VB-98.04, there are buffer
! overrun problems in <strong>xterm</strong> related to the input-Method,
! preeditType, and *Keymap resources. Additional buffer overruns exist in
! the <strong>Xaw</strong> library related to the inputMethod and
! preeditType resources.   The xterm(1) problem represents a security
! vulnerability for any platform where xterm is installed setuid-root
! (as is the case for all OpenBSD platforms).  The Xaw problem represents
! a security vulnerability for any setuid-root program that uses the Xaw
! library (including xterm).  Patch1 from XFree86 3.3.2 corrects
! these problems.
! <a href=ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.3/common/xterm-xaw.patch>
! We provide a version of this patch file specifically for the OpenBSD 2.3 tree</a>.
! We also provide tar files which replace the xterm(1) binary and the libXaw
! libraries on your system. These are expected to be extracted in
! <strong>/usr/X11R6</strong> using the command
! <strong>"tar xvfpz Xawfix.tgz"</strong>.

! <li><font color=#009000><strong>RELIABILITY FIX</strong></font><br>
! The pctr(4) driver has bugs that permit any user to crash the machine,
! if the CPU is not an Intel CPU.  This problem has been properly fixed
! since, but fixes are hard to apply to the 2.2 or 2.3 releases.  To avoid

- The pcvt(4) console driver has a bug that can cause some keyboard
- controllers to lock up when a key is pressed that toggles the status

- generally intermittent and the keyboard can be "unlocked" by unplugging
- and plugging it back in.
