I have a simple question. Several people today have mentioned that
OpenBSD is more secure. I won't get into that. But, several people made
the claim that there hasn't been a single remote exploit in OpenBSD in
over three years. I've heard this claim a lot out of the OpenBSD folks.
So, I was parusing Security Foucus, and I decided to do a little search
for OpenBSD. Below are the results of that search. Three quarters of
these are remote (and I'm not counting DoS). Am I missing something, or
are the OpenBSD folks just not looking??
