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 9d8e9952-5a42-11ef-a219-1c697a616631 advisory.

    Intel reports:

              A potential security vulnerability in SMI Transfer monitor (STM) may               allow escalation of privilege.  Intel has released microcode updates               to mitigate this potential vulnerability.


              A potential security vulnerability in some 3rd Generation Intel Xeon               Scalable Processors may allow denial of service.  Intel has released               microcode updates to mitigate this potential vulnerability.


              A potential security vulnerability in some 3rd, 4th, and 5th               Generation Intel Xeon Processors may allow escalation of privilege.
              Intel has released firmware updates to mitigate this potential               vulnerability.


              A potential security vulnerability in the Intel Core Ultra Processor               stream cache mechanism may allow escalation of privilege.  Intel has               released microcode updates to mitigate this potential vulnerability.


              A potential security vulnerability in some Intel Processor stream               cache mechanisms may allow escalation of privilege.  Intel has               released microcode updates to mitigate this potential vulnerability.
