WARNING - Seriously damage vulnerability for _desktop_ users, be
Hi there,
I have DragonFly on my workstation computer. I'm using firefox with
flash via linuxpluginwrapper.
Going forward instructions from the port, I have always patched
/usr/src/libexec/rtld-so, after building world.
Today, as usual, after world I've patched sources, and made 'make
install clean'. Unfortunatelly, actual sources of rtld-so are not
supporting changes from libmap's diff, required for flash. So, the
effect was simple - ld-elf.so.1 has been broken ;-) ALL SYSTEM was
totally broken.
I was able to recover it (mouting filesystem from LiveCD, chflags, and
move backuped ld-elf.so.1.old to /usr/libexec).
Of course, the fault was on my side - after reading @commits I should
know, that rtld-so has changed.
But, I want to warn all desktop users, working with flash - the plugin
is currently broken, and better DON'T try to use it, because You all
could end like me ;-))
