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 multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 579c7489-c23d-454a-b0fc-ed9d80ea46e0 advisory.

- Out of bounds memory access in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 116.0.5845.110 allowed a remote attacker to perform an out of bounds memory read via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2023-4427)

- Out of bounds memory access in CSS in Google Chrome prior to 116.0.5845.110 allowed a remote attacker to perform an out of bounds memory read via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2023-4428)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
