Dear Misc:

I've been asked to look into an issue on a i386 system running OpenBSD 3.7. I
realize this is rather out-of-date, so feel free to ignore this question if
it's inappropriate...

The machine is running poptop-1.1.4.b4p1. Someone did an audit and declared
"PoPToP servers prior to version 1.1.4-bs are vulnerable to a buffer
overflow". I notice that even the current version of OpenBSD has a package for
poptop-1.1.4.b4p1, so I find it hard to believe that this version contains a
known buffer overflow. My question is - what information can I provide the
auditor to assure them of this?

Thanks in advance for any comments. For what it's worth I am aware of
alternatives to PoPToP such as OpenVPN.

RPK.
