I was just wondering if the recent reports of a buffer overflow condition 
in some versions of the at(1) program affect Free BSD in any way. (it 
ultimately allows a user to "execute arbitrary commands as root".)  If it 
is affected, are there any patches available that can remedy the problem? 

Thanks in advance,
