FreeBSD : go -- multiple vulnerabilities (a5c64f6f-2af3-11ef-a77e-901b0e9408dc)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 200644

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 a5c64f6f-2af3-11ef-a77e-901b0e9408dc advisory.

The Go project reports:
archive/zip: mishandling of corrupt central directory record The archive/zip package's handling of certain types of invalid zip files differed from the behavior of most zip implementations. This misalignment could be exploited to create an zip file with contents that vary depending on the implementation reading the file. The archive/zip package now rejects files containing these errors.
net/netip: unexpected behavior from Is methods for IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses The various Is methods (IsPrivate, IsLoopback, etc) did not work as expected for IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses, returning false for addresses which would return true in their traditional IPv4 forms.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the FreeBSD security advisory.

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.
