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 7945c543-b3e8-11ef-b680-4ccc6adda413 advisory.

 The GStreamer Security Center reports:
 Insufficient error handling in the JPEG decoder that can lead to NULL-pointer dereferences, and that can cause crashes for certain input files.

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.
