Patches for the OpenBSD base system are distributed as unified diffs.
Each patch contains usage instructions.
All the following patches are also available in one
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2.tar.gz">tar.gz file</a>
for convenience.
<p>
Patches for supported releases are also incorporated into the
<a href="stable.html">-stable branch</a>.
<hr>
<ul>
<li id="ipsec">
<font color="#009000"><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font>
<i>All architectures</i><br>
If IPSEC communication is attempted by starting photurisd(8) (which is
disabled by default), a system crash may be evoked from remote if
an attacker uses some classes of invalid packets.
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/ipsec.patch">
A source code patch exists which remedies this problem.</a>
<p>
<li id="xterm-xaw">
<font color="#009000"><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font>
<i>All architectures</i><br>
As stated in CERT advisory VB-98.04, there are buffer
overrun problems in <strong>xterm</strong> related to the input-Method,
preeditType, and *Keymap resources. Additional buffer overruns exist in
the <strong>Xaw</strong> library related to the inputMethod and
preeditType resources. The xterm(1) problem represents a security
vulnerability for any platform where xterm is installed setuid-root
(as is the case for all OpenBSD platforms). The Xaw problem represents
a security vulnerability for any setuid-root program that uses the Xaw
library (including xterm). Patch1 from XFree86 3.3.2 corrects
these problems.
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/xterm-xaw.patch">
We provide a version of this patch file specifically for the OpenBSD 2.2 tree</a>.
<p>
<li id="rmjob">
<font color="#009000"><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font>
<i>All architectures</i><br>
An exploitable buffer mismanagement exists in a subroutine used by
lprm and lpd. The problem is exploitable by users on a particular
machine if there is an entry in <strong>/etc/printcap</strong> which
points at a remote printer.
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/rmjob.patch">
A patch is available which corrects this behaviour</a>.
<p>
<li id="uucpd">
<font color="#009000"><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font>
<i>All architectures</i><br>
A DNS-based vulnerability exists when uucpd is used. By default uucpd
is not enabled in the OpenBSD releases, but some sites may have enabled it.
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/uucpd.patch">
A patch is available which corrects this behaviour</a>.
<p>
<li id="named">
<font color="#009000"><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font>
<i>All architectures</i><br>
A vulnerability exists when (and only when) /etc/named.conf has the
<strong>fake-iquery</strong> option enabled.
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/named.patch">
A patch is available which corrects this behaviour</a>.
<p>
<li id="ping">
<font color="#009000"><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font>
<i>All architectures</i><br>
A vulnerability exists in ping(8); if the -R option is used to record
routes, an attacker can spoof a reply packet that will overflow inside
ping. Preliminary investigation makes it look the worst attack
possible is to make ping crash, but one never knows...
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/ping.patch">
A patch is available which corrects this behaviour</a>.
<p>
<li id="sourceroute">
<strong><font color="#009000">SECURITY FIX</font></strong> <i>All architectures</i><br>
If the sysctl variable <strong>net.inet.ip.forwarding</strong> is
enabled (value 1), but the variable <strong>net.inet.ip.sourceroute</strong>
is disabled (value 0), the kernel will block source routed packets from
going through, but will still accept source routing packets destined for
itself. Our fix changes the <strong>net.inet.ip.sourceroute</strong>
variable semantics to mean that all source routed packets should
be blocked completely.
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/sourceroute.patch">
A kernel patch is provided</a>.
<p>
<li id="ruserok">
<font color="#009000"><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font>
<i>All architectures</i><br>
A combination localhost+remote host security problem exists if a
local user running a setuid binary causes a non-existent root .rhosts
file to be created via a symbolic link with a specific kind of corefile,
and then subsequently uses rsh/rlogin to enter the machine from remote.
A similar exploit might also be possible using sshd which lacks any code
for checking for deviations from the expected format in the .rhosts or
.shosts files, but we have not confirmed this yet. The following two
fixes are recommended:
<p>
<ul>
<li>
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/nosuidcoredump.patch">
(1) A kernel patch which adds a new sysctl option which permits the
administrator to decide whether setuid corefiles should be written or not</a>.
<p>
<li><a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/rcmd.patch">
(2) Replaces the libc ruserok() function with a more paranoid
version which detects bogus looking .rhosts files better.</a>
</ul>
<p>
If the
first patch is used to stop setuid coredumps, then the second patch is
not as important.
This problem is fixed much better in OpenBSD-current, where the kernel's
symbolic link handling has been improved such that coredumping will not
create a file on the other side of a symbolic link. Such a patch is not
possible for the 4.4lite1 VFS layer in the OpenBSD 2.2 kernel.<p>
The problem with the ruserok() function appears to also exist in
ssh 1.2.21 and previous (the ssh people have been alerted).
<p>
<li id="mmap">
<strong><font color="#009000">SECURITY FIX</font></strong> <i>All architectures</i><br>
A bug in the vm system permits a file descriptor opened read-only on a
device, to later on be mmap(2)'d read-write, and then modified. This
does not result in a security hole by itself, but it does violate the
safety semantics which securelevels are supposed to provide. If a user
manages to gain kmem group permissions, using this problem they can then
gain root trivially and/or turn securelevels off.
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/vm_mmap.patch">
A kernel patch is available which corrects this behaviour (this is
revision 3 of this patch)</a>.
<p>
<li><font color="#009000"><strong>BUILD PROCESS FIX</strong></font>
<i>All architectures</i><br>
Building an object tree from a read-only source tree (such as off a CDROM)
may fail under certain circumstances (e.g. when creating a symlink on sparc
whose target name is exactly 33 characters). As a workaround you have to
either provide the source tree read/write, or install a newer version of
/usr/bin/readlink.
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/readlink.c">
A replacement source file exists</a>.
<p>
<li id="mountd">
<font color="#009000"><strong>SECURITY FIX</strong></font>
<i>All architectures</i><br>
If a line in /etc/exports which contains hostnames results in an empty
list because none of the supplied hostnames is known, mountd(8) will
accidentally export the filesystem to the world.
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/mountd.patch">
A patch is available which corrects this behaviour</a>.
<p>
<li><font color="#009000"><strong>RELIABILITY FIX</strong></font>
<i>All architectures</i><br>
Setting the MSG_EOR flag on a tcp packet in the send(2) family of
system calls could cause a kernel panic.
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/common/send.patch">
A patch</a> to return EINVAL in this case is available.
<p>
<li id="f00f">
<font color="#009000"><strong>RELIABILITY FIX</strong></font><br>
The Intel P5 F00F bug was discovered after the CDRs had already been
sent to the manufacturer. This problem permits any user who has an account
to lock your machine up using a 4-line program. The problem only affects
Intel P5 processors (the i386, i486, P-Pro, and P-II are not vulnerable,
nor are processors by other manufacturers).
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/i386/f00f.patch">
A kernel source-code patch is available</a>.
<p>
<li><font color="#009000"><strong>FUNCTIONALITY FIX</strong></font><br>
Some Linux binaries will execute in SVR4 emulation mode, which is
definitely a problem for people who need Linux emulation to work correctly.
To solve this mis-identification problem,
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/i386/compat_linux.patch">
a patch file is provided</a>.
<p>
<li><font color="#009000"><strong>RELIABILITY FIX</strong></font><br>
APM can crash on machines without it.
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/2.2/i386/apm.patch">
A kernel source-code patch is available</a>.
<p>
<li><font color="#009000"><strong>INSTALLATION PROCESS FLAW</strong></font><br>
A few people are running into this problem, particularly if they had some
other *BSD operating system on their machine before trying OpenBSD: if after
installation onto an IDE-based machine, the kernel fails to mount the root
partition because it thinks that it should be opening sd0 (0x400), this means
you have incorrectly setup your disklabel for the IDE drive -- the disklabel
is indicating that the drive is SCSI.
To repair this, use the floppy to run "disklabel -E wd0", then using the
"edit" command ensure the type field is set to "ST506".
<p>
<li><font color="#009000"><strong>NEW SOFTWARE</strong></font><br>
Unfortunately, X11 binaries for the mac68k did not manage to make it onto the
CDROM. However, X11 for the mac68k is immediately available from
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.2/mac68k/X11/X11R6.tar.gz">
https://ftp.OpenBSD.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.2/mac68k/X11/X11R6.tar.gz</a>. Please
be sure to read the <a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.2/mac68k/X11/README.X11">README file</a> also in that directory for instructions on installing
and setting up X.
<p>
<li><font color="#009000"><strong>INSTALLATION PROCESS FLAW</strong></font><br>
As shipped on the CDROM, both the
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.2/mac68k/bsd-generic.tar.gz">
generic kernel</a>
and the
<a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.2/bsd-genericbsc.tar.gz">
genericsbc kernel</a>
extract themselves into the wrong place in the filesystem.
Both <strong>should</strong> extract a kernel named <tt>/bsd</tt>, but they extract
the kernel into <tt>/usr/src/sys/arch/mac68k/compile</tt> instead.
<p>
This has been fixed on the ftp release of <a href=22.html>OpenBSD 2.2</a>, and
fresh kernels are available from <a href="https://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.2/mac68k">
http://ftp.OpenBSD.ORG/pub/OpenBSD/2.2/mac68k/</a>. If at all possible,
installing these kernels is recommended.
<p>
A number of possible workarounds exist if you don't have easy access to ftp
the updated kernels. The simplest of these is to use a
MacOS program to uncompress and untar the kernel aad use the Installer's
mini-shell to "cpin" the kernel. Alternately, you could install the kernel
with the Installer and use the mini-shell to move the binary from <tt>/usr/src/...</tt> to <tt>/bsd</tt>.
<p>
<li><font color="#009000"><strong>RELIABILITY FIX</strong></font><br>
Older 4/xxx systems (particularly the 4/300's) cannot boot
with the 2.2 kernel due to bugs in the scsi device driver.
