Kann mir jemand sagen, warum sich #networkd 's #DHCPServer global Port 67 krallen will, seit auf dem anderen Interface nicht mehr isc-dhcp, sondern #kea läuft?

#Kea 3.1.9 (dev) has been released ( #DHCP / #DHCPv4 / #DHCPv6 / #DNS / #ISC / #InternetSystemsConsortium ) https://www.isc.org/kea/

"Bruce the kea—a species of alpine parrot native to New Zealand—lost his upper beak in an accident as a young bird. But that hasn’t stopped him from becoming the dominant male in his kea community (known as a “circus”) at the Willowbank Wildlife Reserve. According to a new paper published in the journal Current Biology, Bruce achieved his alpha status via a unique fighting method, essentially “jousting” with what remains of his beak."

A disabled kea parrot, who is missing his upper beak is nonethless the dominant bird in his flock (circus) of 12. And he's totally chill about it, with the lowest stress hormone metabolites in the group.

Keana is one of the Characters I created for my Comic "Legends of the Lost"
She is a kenku and her job is to build weapons and armor. She choose this jobs because she loves strong womans. At most she loves Stormclaw. Stormclaw just goes to her because Keana is the best in her job. To mens is Keana rude. She wish she could have only female Clients but at the End Money is Money.

CVE Alert: CVE-2025-40779 - ISC - Kea - https://www.redpacketsecurity.com/cve-alert-cve-2025-40779-isc-kea/

Wild Kea parrots love to get into anything they can, so it made sense that one poked its head into our car to see if there were any treasures inside. Thank goodness the window was only open part way. #birds #birding #kea #nature #newzealand https://frametoframe.ca/our-encounter-with-wild-kea-the-worlds-only-alpine-parrot/

So ISC DHCP is apparently end of life, replaced by #Kea. Looks neat on the surface, I figured let's take a look.
My gateway runs #OpenBSD, but the Kea port is a little bit old. How hard could it be to roll a couple of version numbers? So I set up a vm to build and test.

Okay, so it turns out they completely changed the build process between 2.x and 3.0, to Meson. It seems to do both configure and make. Gotta update the port and learn how to deal with Meson. I'm sure it's wonderful.

Only ran into one real porting issue. Apparently OpenBSD does something different with bpf_timeval, and it's a different type? And Boost doesn't know how to convert it. Fortunately this was already a problem in nmap and worked around, so I copied the workaround.

Wait. Bpf? Nmap? Why does a dhcp server have its own network stack?!

Anyway I get it to compile and start to look at the installation part. That's when it dawns on me: THEY RUN EVERYTHING AS ROOT IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD TWENTY TWENTY-FIVE.

They split each section of the server into its own process, it'd be perfect for a least-privilege bind-ports-and-drop-privs model with everything as a different user. They do fuzzing as part of the build! They set LIBCPP_HARDENING_MODE! Well, they set it to FAST which only does like two checks but at least they set it!

And how about that, they recently posted a couple of LPE vulnerabilities that wouldn't have worked without root. (Should have checked that first...) I suspect there will be more.

Note: I did see their instructions for running as non-root. It's a completely manual process that only works on Linux (by assigning capabilities). Everything still runs as the same user, and that user has CAP_BIND_RAW. It's also not the default and literally zero people will do this.

The kea (Nestor notabilis) is the world’s only alpine parrot—clever, curious, and full of character.

Photographed here mid-call, this juvenile is part of a nationally endangered species found only in New Zealand.

The Kea Conservation Trust estimates fewer than 7,000 individuals remain in the wild. Threats include lead poisoning, predation, habitat loss, and human conflict.

The world’s only alpine parrot – the curious, clever, and often mischievous kea 🦜

Photographed here in its natural habitat in Otira, New Zealand, with the snow-covered Southern Alps as a backdrop. These endangered birds are full of personality and play a vital role in our mountain ecosystems.
Let’s protect what’s left.
