I have several computers all running OpenBSD. After the recent Toronto
Hackathon, current is running extremely well with a long standing
xombrero issue resolved.
I am running
OpenBSD 5.3-current (GENERIC.MP) #10: Thu Jun 13 00:29:17 MDT 2013
dera...@amd64.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC.MP
Also perusing the recent Xenocara code base, many of the Xorg
vulnerabilites have been addressed in current
The number and extent of the recent xorg vulnerabilities was large
enough to wonder if and how the vulnerabilities would be addressed in
5.3 release (one huge patch and whole xenocara build, multiple small
patches with selective xenocara builds, new x install sets or do nothing
at all). I have seen some comments acknowledging the issue in
openbsd-misc but no discussion on how it will be addressed. There were
no comments in the hackathon or in openbsd-x11
My systems function mostly as desktops so Xorg vulnerabilities carry
some weight.
Anyone have insight as to if the vulnerabilities in 5.3 will be
addressed? I think it counts as the base install.
