Comment (by bdubbs):

 dhcpcd-7.2.1 has been released with the following changes:
   *  Solaris: Many more issues fixed
   *  OpenBSD: Don't spam syslog when cannot send NA
   *  FreeBSD: Fix fetching IPv6 address lifetimes

 These security issues are also addressed:
   *  auth: Use consttime_memequal to avoid latency attack
      consttime_memequal is supplied if libc does not support it
      dhcpcd >=6.2 <7.2.1 are vulnerable

   *  DHCP: Fix a potential 1 byte read overflow with DHO_OPTSOVERLOADED
      dhcpcd >=4 <7.2.1 are vulnerable

   *  DHCPv6: Fix a potential buffer overflow reading NA/TA addresses
      dhcpcd >=7 <7.2.1 are vulnerable
