DATE CVE VULNERABILITY TITLE RISK
2010-11-22 CVE-2010-4210 Improper Locking vulnerability in Freebsd
The pfs_getextattr function in FreeBSD 7.x before 7.3-RELEASE and 8.x before 8.0-RC1 unlocks a mutex that was not previously locked, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic), overwrite arbitrary memory locations, and possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to opening a file on a file system that uses pseudofs.

2008-11-26 CVE-2008-5162 Use of Insufficiently Random Values vulnerability in Freebsd
The arc4random function in the kernel in FreeBSD 6.3 through 7.1 does not have a proper entropy source for a short time period immediately after boot, which makes it easier for attackers to predict the function's return values and conduct certain attacks against the GEOM framework and various network protocols, related to the Yarrow random number generator.

2007-07-16 CVE-2007-3798 Unchecked Return Value vulnerability in multiple products
Integer overflow in print-bgp.c in the BGP dissector in tcpdump 3.9.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted TLVs in a BGP packet, related to an unchecked return value.

2005-05-02 CVE-2005-1036 Missing Initialization of Resource vulnerability in Freebsd
FreeBSD 5.x to 5.4 on AMD64 does not properly initialize the IO permission bitmap used to allow user access to certain hardware, which allows local users to bypass intended access restrictions to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information, and possibly gain privileges.

2005-03-05 CVE-2005-0109 Hyper-Threading technology, as used in FreeBSD and other operating systems that are run on Intel Pentium and other processors, allows local users to use a malicious thread to create covert channels, monitor the execution of other threads, and obtain sensitive information such as cryptographic keys, via a timing attack on memory cache misses.

2004-11-23 CVE-2004-0079 NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in multiple products
The do_change_cipher_spec function in OpenSSL 0.9.6c to 0.9.6k, and 0.9.7a to 0.9.7c, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted SSL/TLS handshake that triggers a null dereference.
7.5
2003-08-27 CVE-2003-0466 Off-by-one Error vulnerability in multiple products
Off-by-one error in the fb_realpath() function, as derived from the realpath function in BSD, may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code, as demonstrated in wu-ftpd 2.5.0 through 2.6.2 via commands that cause pathnames of length MAXPATHLEN+1 to trigger a buffer overflow, including (1) STOR, (2) RETR, (3) APPE, (4) DELE, (5) MKD, (6) RMD, (7) STOU, or (8) RNTO.

2002-12-31 CVE-2002-1915 Improper Locking vulnerability in multiple products
tip on multiple BSD-based operating systems allows local users to cause a denial of service (execution prevention) by using flock() to lock the /var/log/acculog file.

2002-08-12 CVE-2002-0391 Integer Overflow or Wraparound vulnerability in multiple products
Integer overflow in xdr_array function in RPC servers for operating systems that use libc, glibc, or other code based on SunRPC including dietlibc, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by passing a large number of arguments to xdr_array through RPC services such as rpc.cmsd and dmispd.

2001-08-23 CVE-2001-1155 Incorrect Authorization vulnerability in Freebsd 4.1.1/4.2/4.3
TCP Wrappers (tcp_wrappers) in FreeBSD 4.1.1 through 4.3 with the PARANOID ACL option enabled does not properly check the result of a reverse DNS lookup, which could allow remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via DNS spoofing.
