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 dfa2ef44-7785-11f1-99fc-40b034429ecf advisory.

 CGI-Session project reports:
 SECURITY: Strengthen cryptographic randomness of MD5 driver.
