I just pushed a fix for a stack buffer-overflow bug
in libc's idn2utf() function to convert a punycode
domain name into utf-8.

The bug existed in all releases starting from:

Date:	Tue Sep 25 20:14:25 +0200 2018

The following programs are affected:

ip/ipconfig
ndb/dns
webfs

It is highly recommended to sysupdate and rebuild the
whole system *NOW*, including the kernel as ip/ipconfig
is included in the kernels bootfs image.

you can see if you are affected by running the following:

term% hget http://AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
webfs 8183: suicide: sys: trap: fault write addr=0x0 pc=0x20ddec
