Solution Do one of the following: [For OpenSSH included in the base system] 1) Upgrade the vulnerable system to 4.4-RELEASEp9, 4.5-RELEASEp2, or 4.5-STABLE after the correction date and rebuild. 2) FreeBSD 4.x systems prior to the correction date: The following patch has been verified to apply to FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE, 4.5-RELEASE, and 4.5-STABLE dated prior to the correction date. It may or may not apply to older, unsupported versions of FreeBSD __END_QUOTE__ What is 4.5-RELEASEp2 ? I ask because I downloaded 4.5-RELEASE a few days ago, and presume it is = the newest version, though the files are dated around 28th / 29th January, we= ll before the above advisory. The statement=20 "1) Upgrade the vulnerable system to 4.4-RELEASEp9, 4.5-RELEASEp2, or 4.5-STABLE after the correction date and rebuild." seems to imply there is a newer version "4.5-RELEASEp2", which includes t= he=20 patched OpenSSH but I haven't seen any signs of such a beast.
