I switched away from OPNsense because it's insecure and its maintainers are incompetent. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34839161 https://news.ycombinator.

It's basically a Manjaro vs Arch situation. FreeBSD is fine, but these downstreams like pfSense / OPNsense with only a handful of maintainers just delay patches pointlessly. I'd much rather use upstream directly.
(I switched to Debian instead of FreeBSD because, if I was going to have to set up networking from scratch, I'd much rather do it in an OS I'm more familiar with.)
- brazzledazzle 3y agoI wonder why the OPNsense maintainer took your question so personally. Asking for transparency with how an OS project deals with CVE-impacted packages doesn't seem particularly controversial to me.
