@qbit Thanks! Had an account on mastondon.social, but I trust @phessler more than whomever runs that other node. 🙂

Hah! SUCCESS! I managed to install patchfoo on #OpenBSD #scuttlebutt. Thanks to the patient @qbit holding my hand and giuding me through the npm swamp.

I will write this up in a minute since it involves some trickery, symlinking and praying.

"A malicious DHCP server, or an attacker on the local network able to spoof DHCP responses, could use this flaw to execute arbitrary commands with root privileges on systems using NetworkManager which is configured to obtain network configuration using the DHCP protocol."

Pledging an existing program is a great opportunity to learn how it really works.

I've been hacking on my new port for hours now only to keep finding better ways to restrict operations, hoist problematic parts... and uncover actual bugs/design in the code.
