rarpd supports vlan(4) and has a pid flag. (from FreeBSD) |
| 14 |
+ |
|
| 15 |
+ |
20130917: |
| 16 |
+ |
Support for 65,536 routing tables was added. A new fib specific |
| 17 |
+ |
field has been added to mbuf. This is an increase from 16. |

Security updates: (kern.osreldate 5001) |

nullfs(5) |
| 23 |
+ |
|
| 24 |
+ |
The nullfs(5) implementation of the VOP_LINK(9) VFS operation does not |
| 25 |
+ |
check whether the source and target of the link are both in the same |
| 26 |
+ |
nullfs instance. It is therefore possible to create a hardlink from a |
| 27 |
+ |
location in one nullfs instance to a file in another, as long as the |
| 28 |
+ |
underlying (source) filesystem is the same. |
| 29 |
+ |
|
| 30 |
+ |
ifioctl |
| 31 |
+ |
|
| 32 |
+ |
As is commonly the case, the IPv6 and ATM network layer ioctl request |
| 33 |
+ |
handlers are written in such a way that an unrecognized request is |
| 34 |
+ |
passed on unmodified to the link layer, which will either handle it or |
| 35 |
+ |
return an error code. |
| 36 |
+ |
|
| 37 |
+ |
Network interface drivers, however, assume that the SIOCSIFADDR, |
| 38 |
+ |
SIOCSIFBRDADDR, SIOCSIFDSTADDR and SIOCSIFNETMASK requests have been |
| 39 |
+ |
handled at the network layer, and therefore do not perform input |
| 40 |
+ |
validation or verify the caller's credentials. Typical link-layer |
| 41 |
+ |
actions for these requests may include marking the interface as "up" |
| 42 |
+ |
and resetting the underlying hardware. |
| 43 |
+ |
|
| 44 |
+ |
20130824: |
| 45 |
+ |
Fix a bug in sendmail 8.14.7 that interferes with how it |
| 46 |
+ |
handles AAAA records interoperating with Microsoft DNS servers. |
| 47 |
+ |
FreeBSD has already reported this to Sendmail and a fix |
| 48 |
+ |
will be included in the next release. |
| 49 |
+ |
|
| 50 |
+ |
Subversion 1.8.1 is now in the base system as a static |
| 51 |
+ |
binary. It has limited functionality, but can be used to |
| 52 |
+ |
checkout/commit code. It is named svnlite. |
| 53 |
+ |
|
| 54 |
+ |
20130822: |
| 55 |
+ |
Fix two security vulnerabilities. |
| 56 |
+ |
|
| 57 |
+ |
Fix an integer overflow in IP_MSFILTER (IP MULTICAST). |
| 58 |
+ |
This could be exploited to read memory by a user process. |
| 59 |
+ |
|
| 60 |
+ |
When initializing the SCTP state cookie being sent in INIT-ACK chunks, |
| 61 |
+ |
a buffer allocated from the kernel stack is not completely initialized. |
| 62 |
+ |
