Description

dhcpcd is a DHCP/IPv4LL/IPv6RS/DHCPv6 client. It can also act as a network manager, responding to new interfaces, listening for carrier up/down events and managing routes.

dhcpcd-9 introduces a number of security improvements:

  • privilege separation operations are performed across multiple processes, and those which do not require root privileges are run as the unprivileged _dhcp user
  • sanboxed with capsicum(4) processes run in capability mode, limiting their access and therefore the potential impact of security vulnerabilities
