Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-doc->so Assign to the security officer. In case you can't see the change (took me a lot of squinting to find it), it's that sshd is in /usr/sbin, not /usr/bin. State Changed From-To: open->closed This was updated in the security advisory yesterday. It will be mailed out later today. |
The FreeBSD-SA-03:12.openssh advisory contain a mistake on the proposed command line to restart the sshd daemon (patches version ; opposed to the make world version). [For OpenSSH included in the base system] Fix: Change the actual command line: # (. /etc/rc.conf && ${sshd_program:-/usr/bin/sshd} ${sshd_flags}) To: # (. /etc/rc.conf && ${sshd_program:-/usr/sbin/sshd} ${sshd_flags}) How-To-Repeat: Read: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/CERT/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-03%3A12.openssh.asc, and especially the V.2 section.
