> Uh oh > This is valid Ow! :-( Thanks for reporting this! You know though, for ones this bad I'd really rather you sent the message to security-officer@freebsd.org rather than freebsd-security in the future. There are easily over 1000 people on this list and you just announced a cookbook method for any shell account user to go root on a FreeBSD based ISP box; hardly the kind of information one would want to see widely circulated without a prepared fix, at the least. :-( Jordan
