Hi Robert, I am using Freebsd 8.2 and facing the Use-after-free issue because of the possible reference release on ifaddr without it being acquired. The issue is that ifa remains on the addr list of ifp but it is already free which leads to the panic in the code trying to traverse through the ifaddr list of ifp. I am wondering if the patches you mentioned in the thread are still available. Thanks, Suraj
