From: Mij To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: Re: ports/124401: security/sshguard dumps core Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2008 09:42:11 +0200 the core dump is caused by a double call to a finalization function, one explicit and one implicit. The second time, the function tries to free() a pointer that has been set to null by the previous call. This misbehaviour is not expected to expose to security threats. The fix to the freebsd port will consist of the upgrade to 1.3-stable; I will send it in somewhere in the next four weeks. michele On Jun 8, 2008, at 22:30 , Edwin Groothuis wrote: > Maintainer of security/sshguard, > > Please note that PR ports/124401 has just been submitted. > > If it contains a patch for an upgrade, an enhancement or a bug fix > you agree on, reply to this email stating that you approve the patch > and a committer will take care of it. > > The full text of the PR can be found at: > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/124401 > > -- > Edwin Groothuis via the GNATS Auto Assign Tool > edwin@FreeBSD.org
