Synopsis

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

Description

Note that this is different than the public 'Shellshock' issue.

Specially crafted environment variables could lead to remote arbitrary code execution. This was fixed in bash 4.3.27, however the port was patched with a mitigation in 4.3.25_2.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
