Now, shall I list 50 ways to crash a NetBSD box from the shell?I would highly appreciate it if you would. The NetBSD project believes in the same philosophy of open disclosure that the BUGTRAQ mailing list runs on. What you know about you can fix, what you don't know about *can* hurt you. By all means, please make your list public. If you tell us about these 50 ways to crash a NetBSD box from the shell, we can fix them. If you don't tell us about them, we cannot fix them.
Our source tree is available for anonymous cvs. You can look at it. Detailed commit messages are available.
If you do have a list of defects in NetBSD security that are not fixed in -current, we would greatly appreciate getting them so that we could apply fixes.
How about the various problems at http://www.openbsd.org/security.html which have been sitting there for months? I'm sorry, Perry. I am not being paid to audit your insecure little operating system managed by nasty argumentative people.
