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 a vulnerability as referenced in the 802961eb-7a89-11ef-bdd7-a0423f48a938 advisory.

 [email protected] reports:
 An issue was discovered in FRRouting (FRR). bgp_attr_encap in bgpd/bgp_attr.c does not check the actual remaining stream length before taking the TLV value.

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

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
