<font color="#009000"><strong>006: FTP DISTRIBUTION ERROR: December 4, 2006</strong></font> &nbsp; <i>All architectures</i><br>
The <strong>src.tar.gz</strong> and <strong>ports.tar.gz</strong> archives
released on FTP were created incorrectly, a week after the 4.0 release. The
archives on the CD sets are correct; this only affects people who downloaded
them from a <a href="ftp.html">mirror</a>.
<br>
The archives have been corrected. The correct MD5 of
<a href="ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.0/ports.tar.gz">
ports.tar.gz</a> is eff352b4382a7fb7ffce1e8b37e9eb56, and for
<a href="ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.0/src.tar.gz">
src.tar.gz</a> it is b8d7a0dc6f3d27a5377a23d69c40688e.

<font color="#009000"><strong>005: SECURITY FIX: November 19, 2006</strong></font> &nbsp; <i>All architectures</i><br>
The ELF
<a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ld.so&amp;sektion=1">ld.so(1)</a>
fails to properly sanitize the environment. There is a potential localhost security
problem in cases we have not found yet.  This patch applies to all ELF-based
systems (m68k, m88k, and vax are a.out-based systems).

<font color="#009000"><strong>004: RELIABILITY FIX: November 7, 2006</strong></font> &nbsp; <i>All architectures</i><br>
Due to a bug in the
<a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=arc&amp;sektion=4">arc(4)</a>
RAID driver the driver will not properly synchronize the cache to the logical volumes
upon system shut down. The result being that the mounted file systems within the logical
volumes will not be properly marked as being clean and fsck will be run for the subsequent
boot up.

<font color="#009000"><strong>002: SECURITY FIX: November 4, 2006</strong></font> &nbsp; <i>All architectures</i><br>
Several problems have been found in OpenSSL. While parsing certain invalid ASN.1
structures an error condition is mishandled, possibly resulting in an infinite
loop. A buffer overflow exists in the SSL_get_shared_ciphers function. A NULL
pointer may be dereferenced in the SSL version 2 client code. In addition, many
applications using OpenSSL do not perform any validation of the lengths of
public keys being used.
