OpenBSD 4.x - Portmap Remote Denial of Service

// source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/56671/info

OpenBSD is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability.

Successful exploits may allow the attacker to cause the application to crash, resulting in denial-of-service conditions.

OpenBSD versions prior to 5.2 are vulnerable.
