Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing a security-related update.

Description

Roger Dingledine reports :

The Tor 0.1.0.10 release from a few days ago includes a fix for a bug that might allow an attacker to read arbitrary memory (maybe even keys) from an exit server's process space. We haven't heard any reports of exploits yet, but hey.

Solution

Update the affected package.
