Are a patch and an announcement for the ISC DHCPD format string vulnerability/remote root hole imminent? See http://www.extremetech.com/article/0,3396,apn=2&s=1024&a=26709&ap=1,00.asp for info.... It is not at all hyperbolic to say that a worm which exploits this bug on a few key platforms could take down huge chunks of the Internet as well as many, many LANs attached to it. --Brett Glass To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
