Subject: compat_ibcs2(8) privilege escalation (3.3) / kernel panic (3.4) Georgi Guninski reported a stack overrun due to a missing bounds check in the kernel's iBCS2 emulation. Another similar problem was also fixed at the same time. This issue only affects the i386 architecture. On OpenBSD 3.3, this may result in arbitray code execution and local user privilege escalation. On OpenBSD 3.4, ProPolice catches this, turning a potential privilege escalation into a denial of service. Fixes have been committed to the -stable cvs branches, and patches are also available at ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/3.4/common/006_ibcs2.patch and ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/patches/3.3/common/011_ibcs2.patch
