Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 28ffa931-a510-11ef-8109-b42e991fc52e advisory.

[email protected] reports:
An authorized user may trigger crashes or receive the contents of buffer over-reads of Server memory by issuing specially crafted requests that construct malformed BSON in the MongoDB Server.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the FreeBSD security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
