To: FreeBSD Mailing List Hi folks, Recently OpenBSD developer Gregory Perry disclosed information about possible backdoors in OpenBSD IPSec stack (see http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.tech/22557) In particular, Gregory Perry, who has been working on a OpenBSD -ish implementation of IPSec says a number of backdoors have been introduced into the code. As far as I am aware, FreeBSD contains considerable amount of code ported from OpenBSD. The question is: was the FreeBSD's ipsec code ported from OpenBSD's implementation? If so, what might be the impact of this? Thanks, Victor Lyapunov.
