Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.63077
Category:FreeBSD Local Security Checks
Title:FreeBSD Security Advisory (FreeBSD-SA-08:13.protosw.asc)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update to the system; as announced in the referenced advisory FreeBSD-SA-08:13.protosw.asc
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update to the system
as announced in the referenced advisory FreeBSD-SA-08:13.protosw.asc

Vulnerability Insight:
The FreeBSD kernel provides support for a variety of different types of
communications sockets, including IPv4, IPv6, ISDN, ATM, routing protocol,
link-layer, netgraph(4), and bluetooth sockets. As an early form of
object-oriented design, much of the functionality specific to different
types of sockets is abstracted via function pointers.

Some function pointers for netgraph and bluetooth sockets are not
properly initialized.

Solution:
Upgrade your system to the appropriate stable release
or security branch dated after the correction date.

CVSS Score:
7.2
