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 31bb1b8d-d6dc-11ee-86bb-a8a1599412c6 advisory.

- Type Confusion in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 122.0.6261.94 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit object corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2024-1938)

- Type Confusion in V8 in Google Chrome prior to 122.0.6261.94 allowed a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) (CVE-2024-1939)

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.
