Trojaned release of OpenSSH because the project leader ran a
horribly-coded IRC client on the CVS server? A string of exploits in
OpenSSH?
What they're doing is necessary, but it's not sufficient. Call it a
good step one. (And lest anybody think I'm flaming OpenBSD here, it's a
step one that hardly anybody else has taken. They're way ahead of the
curve.)
Step two is probably reducing complexity, but I'm a weak coder so
I'll shut the eff up now.
