index | next in thread | raw e-mail
I'm about to commit a large number of changes to the user mode ppp. Since they are all no brainers, and have been reviewed, I feel reasonabily confident that things are OK. However, I am unable to test ppp to my level of satisfaction easily, since I don't have a ppp link to test it with. I think these changes will be good, but thought I'd give a heads up. They are 2.2 candidates, but I'd like to have them be tested in -current for as long as possible before committing to the 2.2 branch. They fix an exploitable ppp buffer overflow problem that could be used to break root. Warnerhome | help
