Robert, good day.

Sorry for the delayed response on this -- I've only just returned from Tokyo in the last day and am significantly behind in e-mail from the trip.

According to a source analysis by Jinmei, we are not vulnerable, but I will continue tracking the thread. Apparently this vulnerability involved an issue in the handling of M_EXT, and our implementation of clusters differs significantly from OpenBSD, so it seems likely we are not affected.

OK, thanks for the analysis and sorry for the noise.

If we discover any information to the contrary, you can be sure that we will get it fixed and release an advisory!

Very good, thank you.
