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 multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the c32cb4b7-ddcb-11f0-902c-b42e991fc52e advisory.

vulndb reports:
A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in smb4k up to 4.0.4. Affected is some unknown functionality of the component Mount Helper. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a access control vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-284. The product does not restrict or incorrectly restricts access to a resource from an unauthorized actor. This is going to have an impact on integrity, and availability. The advisory is available at seclists.org. The exploitability is told to be easy. Local access is required to approach this attack. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not available.

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

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