Hello,

According to the information at mitre.org, both 6.x and 7.0 are
vulnerable. I see in NetBSD's CVS log for
src/lib/libc/stdlib/strfmon.c, they have patched this on March
27.
Looking at FreeBSD's CVS log at
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/lib/libc/stdlib/strfmon.c,
 shows that no changes have been made since Mon Sep 12, 2005.
Is our strfmon() not vulnerable as reported?
