[tlug] OpenBSD local exploit

[Matt Doughty <mdoughty@example.com>]

Well it looks like good ol' self proclaimed 'most secure *nix ever' OpenBSD 
has a local root vulnerability that is in the wild. Aparently, mail accepts
escapes sequences in non-interactive mode. As a result it can be exploited
via the daily cron jobs that use mail to send reports.  Anyone our there
that is running Open better have a look see for a patch.  It seems an exploit
is already in the wild.
