commit 0f15f5359041ac50090606082a9c46d913ce7d0f Author: Mark Johnston <[email protected]> AuthorDate: 2026-05-12 14:13:56 +0000 Commit: Mark Johnston <[email protected]> CommitDate: 2026-05-20 19:34:50 +0000 bsdinstall: Avoid invoking eval on the wlan SSID list The wlanconfig utility is not careful about handling untrusted network names, which can contain shell metacharacters. Factor network selection into a subroutine and use the `set -- "$@"` trick to build up a list of positional parameters for bsddialog without evaluating them.
