| Summary: | FreeBSD is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by the bspatch utility when processing patch files. By using a specially-crafted file, a remote attacker could overflow a buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system with root privileges or cause the application to crash. | ||||||
