Surprised there's been no mention of wireguard in this list,
particularly given the threads on other forums.  That said it is
good to finally have a third-party analysis of the issue.  See
today's Ars Technica for Jim Salter's take:

  <https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/03/buffer-overruns-license-violations-and-bad-code-freebsd-13s-close-call/3/>

The only downside, no idea how it got by Ars' editors, is an
irrelevant side-thread on 'Macy's record as a landlord.  That
aside the article is a must-read for anyone concerned with
FreeBSD security.
