FreeBSD ports for Mono related applications and libraries.

The BSD# Project is devoted to porting and maintaining the Mono .NET framework for FreeBSD. The Mono framework consists of not only the Mono Runtime environment and compiler but the XSP webserver for handling ASP.NET applications, the IKVM Java virtual machine for handling Java within the framework, and numerous data providers to provide common library functions in C# or intergration with existing C libraries.

The BSD# CVS repository currently contains FreeBSD ports for all Mono packages released by Novell. It also includes ports for applications and libraries from third parties as well with the intent that they be intergrated into the standard FreeBSD ports tree. The project aims to act as a central testing point for porting new releases from Novell, for introducing new applications, and for testing framework wide changes that will affect all applications that rely on Mono before they reach the FreeBSD ports tree.

Mono 1.1.13.8.1 in FreeBSD tree

I've just merged what I can out of the BSD# repo into the FreeBSD repo. Mono 1.1.13.8.1 is a security update.

Update to 1.1.13.8.1

  • fix CVE-2006-5072:
 Sebastian Krahmer of the SuSE security team discovered that the
 System.CodeDom.Compiler classes used temporary files in an insecure
 way. This could allow a symbolic link attack to create or overwrite
 arbitrary files with the privileges of the user invoking the
 program. Under some circumstances, a local attacker could also
 exploit this to inject arbitrary code into running Mono processes.

  • Add USE_NANT to bsd.mono.mk for those ports I have hanging around which require NANT to build.
