Description |
OpenBSD contains a flaw that may allow a local denial of service. The issue is triggered when dup2 is called on a file descriptor in one process then that descriptor is set to NULL via a close in another process that is created via rfork, which will cause a kernel panic and will result in loss of availability for the platform.
