As for vulnerability, I believe both FreeBSD and Linux have fixes available.libc4.7.2 fixed it in May.Hmm I cant find any libc4.7.2 for FreeBSD, so I'm a confused as to which libc you mean.
The Linux libc. Sorry that was a rather confusing answer.I don't know the state of the BSD fixes.
First I've heard of libc4.7.2; but given that it was fixed in there in May, was anyone else alerted to the presence of a bug so that other OS's could be checked?
I don't know. It was only after the 8lgm report that I looked at the Linux libc log to find a fix logged. The log doesnt give any impression it was considered a security fix just a routine tidy up. Alan
