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 77bac392-ba98-11f0-aada-f59a8ea34d12 advisory.

Aous Naman reports several vulnerabilities fixed in OpenJPH versions up to 0.24.5 and credits Cary Phillips for reporting them from the OSS-fuzz project.
[0.24.5] Addresses OpenEXR OSS-fuzz issue 5747129672073216 that can cause heap corruption.
[0.24.4...] we now check that the ATK marker segment length (Latk) makes sense.
The issue was identified in OpenEXR fuzzing.
[0.24.3] This is an important bug fix. It protects against illegally long QCD and QCC marker segments.
It was discovered during OpenEXR fussing; thanx to [Cary Phillips].

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.
