FreeBSD : Angie -- worker process memory corruption when using HTTP/3 (6cf2ff4b-b38c-11f1-a655-3497f65b111b)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 349288

Language:

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 6cf2ff4b-b38c-11f1-a655-3497f65b111b advisory.

 The Angie Software Team reports:
 When using an OpenSSL version without native HTTP/3 support (3.5.0 or earlier), if the default server for the address that accepted a regular HTTPS request also used HTTP/3 (the listen directive with the quic parameter, possibly on a different port), while a server block without HTTP/3 was selected by domain name (SNI), limited worker process memory corruption or a worker process crash could occur (CVE-2026-90439); the fix was ported from nginx 1.31.6.

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.
