  i have received a mail regarding the early development of the openbsd
  ipsec stack. it is alleged that some ex-developers (and the company
  they worked for) accepted us government money to put backdoors into
  our network stack, in particular the ipsec stack. around 2000-2001.
  
  since we had the first ipsec stack available for free, large parts of
  the code are now found in many other projects/products. over 10
  years, the ipsec code has gone through many changes and fixes, so it
  is unclear what the true impact of these allegations are.
  
  the mail came in privately from a person i have not talked to for
  nearly 10 years. i refuse to become part of such a conspiracy, and
  will not be talking to gregory perry about this. therefore i am
  making it public so that
  (a) those who use the code can audit it for these problems,
  (b) those that are angry at the story can take other actions,
  (c) if it is not true, those who are being accused can defend themselves.
  
  of course i don't like it when my private mail is forwarded. however
  the "little ethic" of a private mail being forwarded is much smaller
  than the "big ethic" of government paying companies to pay open source
  developers (a member of a community-of-friends) to insert
  privacy-invading holes in software.

  hello theo,
  
  long time no talk. if you will recall, a while back i was the cto at
  netsec and arranged funding and donations for the openbsd crypto
  framework. at that same time i also did some consulting for the fbi,
  for their gsa technical support center, which was a cryptologic
  reverse engineering project aimed at backdooring and implementing key
  escrow mechanisms for smart card and other hardware-based computing
  technologies.
  
  my nda with the fbi has recently expired, and i wanted to make you
  aware of the fact that the fbi implemented a number of backdoors and
  side channel key leaking mechanisms into the ocf, for the express
  purpose of monitoring the site to site vpn encryption system
  implemented by eousa, the parent organization to the fbi. jason
  wright and several other developers were responsible for those
  backdoors, and you would be well advised to review any and all code
  commits by wright as well as the other developers he worked with
  originating from netsec.
  
  this is also probably the reason why you lost your darpa funding, they
  more than likely caught wind of the fact that those backdoors were
  present and didn't want to create any derivative products based upon
  the same.
  
  this is also why several inside fbi folks have been recently
  advocating the use of openbsd for vpn and firewalling implementations
  in virtualized environments, for example scott lowe is a well
  respected author in virtualization circles who also happens top be on
  the fbi payroll, and who has also recently published several tutorials
  for the use of openbsd vms in enterprise vmware vsphere deployments.
  
  merry christmas...
