  • *************** *** 85,91 **** a security vulnerability for any setuid-root program that uses the Xaw library (including xterm). Patch1 from XFree86 3.3.2 corrects these problems. ! We provide a version of this patch file specifically for the OpenBSD 2.2 tree.

  • *************** *** 94,114 **** lprm and lpd. The problem is exploitable by users on a particular machine if there is an entry in /etc/printcap which points at a remote printer. ! A patch is available which corrects this behaviour.

  • SECURITY FIX
    A DNS-based vulnerability exists when uucpd is used. By default uucpd is not enabled in the OpenBSD releases, but some sites may have enabled it. ! A patch is available which corrects this behaviour.

  • SECURITY FIX
    A vulnerability exists when (and only when) /etc/named.conf has the fake-iquery option enabled. ! A patch is available which corrects this behaviour.

  • RELIABILITY FIX
    Setting the MSG_EOR flag on a tcp packet in the send(2) family of system calls could cause a kernel panic. ! A patch to return EINVAL in this case is available.

  • FUNCTIONALITY FIX
    Some Linux binaries will execute in SVR4 emulation mode, which is definitely a problem for people who need Linux emulation to work correctly. To solve this mis-identification problem, ! a patch file is provided.

  • RELIABILITY FIX

  • NEW SOFTWARE
    Unfortunately, X11 binaries for the mac68k did not manage to make it onto the CDROM. However, X11 for the mac68k is immediately available from ! ! ftp://ftp.OpenBSD.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.2/mac68k/X11/X11R6.tar.gz. Please ! be sure to read the README file also in that directory for instructions on installing and setting up X.

  • INSTALLATION PROCESS FLAW
    As shipped on the CDROM, both the ! generic kernel and the ! genericsbc kernel extract themselves into the wrong place in the filesystem. Both should extract a kernel named /bsd, but they extract the kernel into /usr/src/sys/arch/mac68k/compile instead.

    This has been fixed on the ftp release of OpenBSD 2.2, and ! fresh kernels are available from ! ftp://ftp.OpenBSD.ORG/pub/OpenBSD/2.2/mac68k/. If at all possible, installing these kernels is recommended.

    A number of possible workarounds exist if you don't have easy access to ftp --- 242,266 ----

  • RELIABILITY FIX
    Older 4/xxx systems (particularly the 4/300's) cannot boot with the 2.2 kernel due to bugs in the scsi device driver. ! A kernel source patch is available. Replacement kernels are available for: ! bsd, ! bsd.scsi3, and a replacement for bsd.rd is coming soon.

  • RELIABILITY FIX
    SPARCstation 4 and 5 (Microsparc 2) users may see kernel panics when using a custom kernel configured for option sun4m only. ! A workaround (kernel source patch) is available. Apply the patch and then re-build your kernel.
