CVE-2019-8460.

Reuven Plevinsky and Tal Vainshtein of Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. discovered that OpenBSD kernel (all versions, including 6.5) can be forced to create long chains of TCP SACK holes that cause very expensive calls to tcp_sack_option() for every incoming SACK packet which can lead to a denial of service.

The OpenBSD Hypervisor in the wild, a short story.

OpenBSD Amsterdam started in the summer of 2018 after a poll on Twitter as an idea to start testing with vmm(4)/vmd(8). Mostly to see how far we could take it and more importantly to give back to the project. Little did we know where it would take us.

During this talk I will outline how it all started, how it’s build, how we operate the platform and what speedbumps we encountered.

Protect the ESXi virtual machines with OpenBSD

I own a server at Online.net which now runs VMware ESXi free edition. The thing is VMs have to access the Wild Wild Web and provide public services while still being protected. So let’s configure OpenBSD to do so.
