Hello everybody

I undersatnd that this issue doesn't affect many people even though I'd like to know about the problem. Is there any mailing list related to newly discovered security problems in OpenBSD? I know only about security-announce list but as far as I know there are only messages related to Errata patches and to be hones I haven't seen an email from this list for really long time. In my opinion it is very important to have information about all potentional risks. For example this problem in PF: I have information about it only from this mailing list and I think I was lucky that I spoted this among many others messages and topics. Maybe it is my fault by I'm just a human and I just do not have time to get through all emails on many lists, search for new bugs on SecurityFocus, Secunia and so on. So my question is simple, is there any project which delas in all security problems in OpenBSD? Or is it really necessary to check misc list and other lists, many webpages every day?

Thank you
Best Regards
MK

This came across security focus and I haven't seen it mentioned here.
THey claim 3.8 is vulnerable, anybody know anything?

This has been fixed in -current, 3.8-stable and 3.7-stable.

This crash only works if you have 'scrub fragment crop' or 'scrub fragment drop-ovl' in your pf rules. Not a lot of people use this option so there is no patch on errata.hml


Cheers,
