All architectures
- SECURITY FIX
As stated in CERT advisory VB-98.04, there are buffer
overrun problems in xterm
related to the input-Method, preeditType, and *Keymap resources, and
buffer overruns in the Xaw
library related to the inputMethod and preeditType resources.
The xterm 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.
We provide a version of this patch file specifically for the OpenBSD 2.3 tree.

exact final set that we shipped for the other releases. A few minor
changes, mostly in xdm(1) configuration, were made
after those binaries were made. Patches for this might come out later.
