> He discovered a potential stack overflow that can be triggered by an
> authenticated peer. This can be used to cause a tinc daemon to crash, or in 
> the
> worst case, it might be possible to execute code on another node as the user
> running tincd. This bug has been present in all versions of tinc. All users of
